    asparagus
  • 4 Tbsp
    olive oil
  • 1/2 c
    parmigiano-reggiano, grated
  • 4 Tbsp
    lemon juice, fresh

How To Make asparagus candy

  • 1
    Pre heat oven to 450 degrees.
  • 2
    Wash asparagus and snap hard, woody ends off. Pour olive oil, salt and pepper over asparagus. Make sure they all get a good rub down!
  • 3
    Put the asparagus on a large cookie sheet. Make sure they are spread out flat (you may have to do 2 batches). Roast for 10 minutes.

    After 10 minutes, take the asparagus out and sprinkle with the cheese and lemon juice. Put back in the oven for 5 to 8 minutes. I take them out when the cheese is nice and crispy!
