Ingredients

2 pounds asparagus, tough ends trimmed, rinsed and patted dry
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

In a large glass baking dish, toss the asparagus with the olive oil and garlic. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and toss. Bake until the asparagus are tender and lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes, depending upon the thickness of the stalks, stirring twice.

Remove from the oven and toss with the lemon juice. Adjust the seasoning, to taste.

Serve warm or at room temperature.

It's ok
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

The asparagus shouldn't have been cooked that long unless you like them really limp and the flavor was just off.

Nothing special
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Although this is easy, that doesn't make it that great-it is nothing special but quick. I normally love Emeril's recipes for... being different and this is very basic. Fine if you are in a hurry..Read more

Easy and Tasty!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this yesterday for Easter Dinner. Followed directions exactly and cooked for 15 min. It was a hit and everyone loved... it! It fed 30 people and I could have added 1/2 a recipe more so people could have more than just 2-3 spears. Thanks for an easy and healthy recipe Emeril!Read more

First of all . . .
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have to start by saying that I adore Chef Emeril. (Who knew? :-) But this is a wonderful, incredibly easy way to make... asparagus. My son (aged 9) has always loved it, but with this recipe, he was even fighting me for the cold left-over spears! Would that my husband could make the leap. I will make this again and again and again!Read more
