This is a pretty simple side dish with tasty results. I also do a grilled asparagus but the baked version is great when you have other things in the kitchen to take care of. As with any asparagus recipe always clip the tough ends off. If I am unsure where the toughness starts I will do a knife test, which is pressing my knife softly into the stalk if the knife starts to go through with little to no effort that is the good part if the knife meets resistance i know that is part of the tough part!
Ingredients:
• 1 pound of asparagus
• 2 to 3 tbsp olive oil
• salt and pepper
Directions:
Cut washed asparagus into about finger length bits discarding the tough ends (they are great in compost). Put preped asparagus into prep bowl.
Add the olive oil and salt and pepper, bake at 350 for about 15 to 18 minutes. Testing fork will come out tender when it is done!
ready for the oven!
