This recipe for roasted asparagus comes out perfect every time, with super crispy tips and perfect browning! Roasting at a high temperature (450 degrees F) and broiling at the end ensures crispy asparagus tips and tons of flavor. And peeling – NOT snapping – the ends of the asparagus results in more tender, delicious asparagus that’s longer and more evenly shaped.
Before roasting, the asparagus is drizzled with olive oil, and seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. After cooking, I sprinkled it with parmesan cheese and drizzled with balsamic glaze. While this flavor combo is SO delicious, it’s also really easy to make this recipe for roasted asparagus your own!
You can keep it simple and stick with just the oil, salt, and pepper. Or, add other spices to it if you want, or lemon zest. Roast the asparagus spears along with cherry tomatoes, thinly cut carrots, or thinly cut potatoes. And the parmesan and balsamic finishing touches? Feel free to leave out the parmesan for a vegan version, and drizzle the roasted asparagus with any other things you love (gochujang mayo, anyone? Or how about some homemade ranch dressing?
