Serves 6

Roasting them in the oven brings out the flavor - compared with boiling them which washes away the flavor and makes them taste like %$#@. If you can't find white asparagus, use the blue ones. Kidding...use only green.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb medium green asparagus with tough ends cut off
  • 1 lb medium white asparagus with tough ends cut off
  • Approximately 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Kosher Salt & Fresh Ground Pepper
  • 1 Lemon

Steps

  1. Heat oven to 425
  2. Drizzle asparagus with olive oil, season well with Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper and place on baking sheet
  3. Roast until crisp tender, about 10-15 minutes
  4. Lightly squeeze lemon over the top before serving
