Roasted Asparagus

Roasted Asparagus is the perfect side dish to go with your Sunday roast!

📝 Ingredients

• 1 garlic clove (thinly sliced)
• 1/3 cup coarsely grated Parmesan (or Parmesan shavings)
• 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
• 1 Tbsp Unsalted Butter
• 1 lbs Asparagus
• 1 Tbsp Lemon Juice (Freshly Squeezed )
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1/4 tsp Pepper

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1In a medium skillet or frying pan set over medium-low, heat Olive Oil, add sliced garlic and saute until lightly browned. Be careful not to burn it. Transfer garlic to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
2. 2Add the butter to the pan and increase the temperature to medium. Add asparagus to the pan, cover and cook for about 5 minutes (3 min for thin, 5 minutes for thick asparagus).
3. 3Take off the lid, increase temp to medium-high and fry until lightly browned about 3 minutes. Test for the desired doneness by lifting out a stalk and taste it.
4. 4Transfer the asparagus to a serving dish, sprinkle over the roasted garlic and season with the lime juice, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine and top with parmesan shavings just before serving.
