Lemon Pepper Roasted Asparagus instructions
- Wash and gently pat dry asparagus. Trim woody ends (this is generally about 2 inches above the flat end). Just hold the bunch together and chop straight through all the stalks at once..
- Place asparagus in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat. Sprinkle with seasoning and toss to coat again (no need for salt unless your lemon pepper seasoning contains none)..
- Spread seasoned asparagus out in an even layer on a baking sheet so the spears aren't touching each other (I lined mine with parchment)..
- Place in preheated 375°F oven. Bake until desired tenderness is reached, generally 12-20 minutes (I pull mine out at about 18). Serve immediately. Enjoy!.
