Ingredients

  • 1 pound asparagus
  • 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil
  • 1 tablespoon garlic
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • First, wash your asparagus and then break, don't cut, the ends. You want them to break at their natural spot so you best optimize their flavour. No one wants woody asparagus - it just tastes yucky.
  • Set the oven to 425 and get out a sheet pan.
  • Lay down a silicone mat and then organize your asparagus in one layer.
  • Drizzle on the grapeseed oil, then top with the minced garlic and salt and pepper.
  • Roast in your oven for 10-15 minutes.
  • While it's roasting, shred the parmesan. I used the fresh block since I find it has much more flavour.
  • Take the sheet pan out and then top with the cheese.
  • Change the setting to broil on your oven and broil for 3-4 minutes until the cheese starts to brown a touch.
  • Done! Plate up and eat right away.
