Greet your taste buds with the golden, caramelized beauty of oven-roasted asparagus. This recipe, courtesy of Clean & Delicious, elevates basic asparagus into a delightful side dish. Touched with the savory notes of Parmesan cheese and the gentle heat of red pepper flakes, this vegetable creation promises a mouth-watering experience in every tender, creamy bite.

Ingredients:

- 1 bunch asparagus

- 2 teaspoons olive oil (or avocado oil)

- Sea salt, to taste

- Black pepper, to taste

- Grated Parmesan cheese, for garnish

- Red pepper flakes, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Prep Time: 10 minutes; Cook Time: 10 minutes; Total Time: 20 minutes

2. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and position the oven rack in the center.

3. Remove any rubber bands from the asparagus bunch and trim off the woody ends. You can either snap them off individually by bending them gently until they break naturally, or line them up and cut them all at once using the first spear as a guide.

4. Rinse the asparagus under cold water then pat them dry with a clean dish towel. It is crucial they are dry to ensure proper caramelization during roasting.

5. Arrange the asparagus on a rimmed baking sheet (a half sheet pan) in a single layer to allow for even roasting.

6. Drizzle the olive oil (2 teaspoons should suffice) over the asparagus. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking.

7. Gently toss the asparagus with your hands, ensuring each spear is lightly coated with the oil and seasoning.

8. Roast in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes. Thin spears will take less time (about 7 minutes), while thicker ones might need up to 15 minutes. Aim for a golden color and tender but firm texture.

9. Once roasted to perfection, transfer to a serving platter. While hot, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top and add a pinch of red pepper flakes for some warmth.

10. Serve immediately and enjoy the depth of flavors in this simple yet exquisite asparagus dish.

Equipment:

- Oven

- Rimmed Baking Sheet/Half Sheet Pan

- Cutting Board and Knife

- Dish Towel

- Measuring Spoons

Cooking Tips:

- Ensure the asparagus is thoroughly dry after washing to prevent steaming.

- Spread the spears out in a single layer without crowding to promote even roasting.

- Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of your asparagus spears.
