Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/2 lbs fresh asparagus (about 30 large)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon ground lemon pepper
1/2 cup asiago cheese or 1/2 cup romano cheese
2 lemons, cut in wedges for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • If the stalks of the asparagus are thick, peel the bottom half of each or break the bottom part off.
  • Combine all the ingredients, except the cheese, in a bowl.
  • After combining, arrange the asparagus on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender.
  • Sprinkle with the cheese and return to the oven for another minute.
  • Serve with lemon wedges.
  • **Ina Garten prefers thick asparagus to thin ones; as they have more flavor.
