Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound asparagus, trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • optional Lemon wedges for serving

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the trimmed asparagus with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Arrange the seasoned asparagus on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roasting
  1. Roast in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and slightly crisp.
  2. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
  3. Return to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving

Notes

For best results, serve warm right out of the oven. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 3-5 days. To reheat, use a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes.
