Ingredients

2 bunches medium asparagus

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

Grated or shaved Parmesan, optional

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. Trim the woody ends from the asparagus, usually about 1 1/2 inches. Lightly peel the remaining stalks (not always necessary, but more of a personal preference). Spread the spears in a single layer on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with the salt and pepper, and roll to coat thoroughly.
  3. Roast the asparagus until lightly browned and tender, about 8 to 10 minutes, giving the pan a good shake about halfway through to turn the asparagus. Arrange the roasted asparagus on a serving platter and top with some Parmesan. Serve warm or at room temperature.
