Ingredients

  • 2 pounds fresh asparagus
  • Good olive oil
  • Kosher salt, plus extra for sprinkling
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Break off the tough ends of the asparagus and, if they're thick, peel them. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast the asparagus for 25 minutes, until tender but still crisp.

    So easy and yummy. Great way to enjoy asparagus without the need for hollandaise sauce. I lowered the temp to 375 and only cooked for 20 minutes. Depending on how thick your spears are, you need to adjust the time. Mine were medium and this was perfect. Unless you have the really fat ones, I recommend you set the timer for 18 minutes to start. You don't want your tips burning. Also, I like a little crunch to mine. For a little different flavor, I sprinkled with dried tarragon.

    My new favorite way to cook asparagus. This is so easy and so good. I cooked mine for about 18 minutes as they were a bit thin and they turned out perfect. I used to grill the asparagus but this is easier. Thanks Ina!

    Ina's recipe for roasted asparagus is delicious. I've been doing it this way for several years, although I use Ina's recipe from some years ago which says set oven at 425 degrees and roast for 15 to 20 minutes. I too used to think the little pencil asparagus were the best, but not so. The skinny little guys ARE NOT GOOD FOR ROASTING! They get mushy very quickly. For mball572 who gave this recipe only one star because the "timing was way off": You spoke of grilling, but this recipe is for ROASTED asparagus, not GRILLED asparagus. There IS a difference.
