📝 Preparation Steps
1
Roasted:Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss the asparagus spears with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them onto the baking sheet. Bake for ⏱️ 12 minutes, or until the spears are lightly crisp and tender. Squeeze with lemon and serve.
2
Grilled: Preheat a grill to medium. Toss the spears with olive oil, salt, and pepper and grill for 6 to ⏱️ 8 minutes, flipping or rolling halfway through. Squeeze with lemon and serve. Tip: grill lemon halves and use the charred lemons for squeezing.
3
Blanched:Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and set a bowl of ice water nearby. Chop the spears into 1-inch pieces and drop them into the boiling water for about ⏱️ 1 minute, or until tender but still bright green. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the blanched asparagus to the ice water and chill for ⏱️ 1 minute. Drain, pat dry, and toss into salads, pastas, or squeeze with lemon and enjoy!
