Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Roast on middle rack of oven until the asparagus is crisp-tender, 10-12 minutes.

My Notes

Whether it's a recipe tweak or an inspiration burst — jot it down here.

Asparagus Snap Technique 🥦
Always snap off the woody ends of asparagus naturally by bending each spear - it will break exactly where the tender part meets the tough part.
Garlic Mincing Magic 🧄
For the most intense flavor, mince garlic just before cooking and let it sit for 10 minutes to activate its beneficial enzymatic compounds.
Parmesan Grating Pro Tip 🧀
Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese instead of pre-grated for maximum flavor and better melting characteristics.
Even Roasting Technique 🔥
Arrange asparagus in a single layer without overcrowding to ensure each spear roasts evenly and develops a beautiful golden color.
Olive Oil Drizzle Trick 💧
Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil in a zigzag motion to ensure more uniform coating and better flavor distribution across the asparagus.
