Roasted Asparagus Recipe
Directions
  • Preheat oven to 450° F. If oven is in use at a different temperature, wait until  food being cooked is finished, raise the heat and roast the asparagus so that it can be served immediately--it will only take about 10 minutes.
  • Wash asparagus and trim off tough ends. Put asparagus on baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil (rub it on with your hands, or stir the spears around a bit to get them coated with oil). Salt lightly. Roast until just barely tender, 8-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the spears.
  • Drizzle with lemon juice and serve immediately.
