Oven Roasted Asparagus
High-heat roasted asparagus with crisp edges, tender centers, and deep savory flavor.
Equipment
- 1 Heavy-duty rimmed sheet pan
- 1 Parchment paper
Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh asparagus woody ends removed
- 1½ Tbsp avocado oil or refined olive oil
- ¾ tsp kosher salt
- ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Rinse asparagus thoroughly and pat bone-dry — moisture is the enemy of the crunch.
- Toss spears with oil, salt, and pepper until lightly coated.
- Arrange in a single layer, leaving space between each spear.
- Roast until fork-tender with browned tips, 10–15 minutes depending on thickness.
