Ingredients
- 1 lb Fresh Asparagus
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- 2 Lemons
- 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
- 1/2 tsp Lemon Pepper Seasoning
- 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
- 1/4 tsp Ground Pepper
- 1/4 cup Shredded Parmesan Cheese
- Garlic, minced Optional
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice one lemon thinly and arrange the slices in a single layer on the bottom.
- Rinse the asparagus, trim the thick ends, and pat dry on a cutting board or towel. Drizzle with olive oil, then season with garlic powder, onion powder, lemon pepper seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
- Place the seasoned asparagus on top of the lemon slices. Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the top. Roast in a 400°F (204°C) oven for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on thickness.
- Remove the pan from the oven, sprinkle shredded parmesan cheese over the asparagus, and return to roast for 5 minutes more minutes until the cheese is melted and lightly golden, or serve after shredding. Plate immediately and enjoy!
