Baked Asparagus with Parmesan Recipe
This baked asparagus with parmesan recipe features fresh asparagus spears baked until tender, and topped with nutty, savory Parmesan cheese.
- 1 lb asparagus tough ends trimmed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Arrange the trimmed asparagus spears in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Drizzle the olive oil over the asparagus and season with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the asparagus, making sure to cover the spears evenly.
Bake the asparagus in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until tender and the cheese is melted and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Serve hot.
