Fresh asparagus tossed with garlic, extra virgin olive oil, Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper; then roasted until caramelized.

Do you like asparagus? I'm not a big fan, but my husband and daughter love it; though I only tend to make it several times a year.

Garlic Roasted Asparagus is super simple to make and can be ready in about 20 minutes.

If you have leftovers, you can turn it into soup too!

Ingredients Needed

Fresh Asparagus

Garlic Cloves: I like to thinly slice them, but you can mince as well.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Kosher Salt

Black Pepper

How do you make Garlic Roasted Asparagus?

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F; then trim the bottom stalk part, usually whiter than the green tops. Rinse under cold water and pat dry.

Place the asparagus on a sheet pan top with the garlic. Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil on top; then season with Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper.

Roast them in the oven for about 10-12 minutes depending on the thickness of the stalks; you'll want them to be slightly firm.
