Print Recipe
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Place the prepared asparagus with the woody ends removed on a baking sheet.
Drizzle with olive oil, and add salt and pepper to taste.
Add the minced garlic and toss well with your hands to combine.
Bake for 15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender to your liking.
Spritz with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and serve.
A little parmesan cheese or nutritional yeast can be sprinkled on for added flavor.
You can line your baking sheet with parchment paper first for a non-stick surface. This also makes clean-up faster too!
The cooking times will change depending on the size of your asparagus. You’ll know when the asparagus is completely cooked when you can easily pierce it with a fork. It could take anywhere from 10 minutes for thin ones to 20 minutes for really thick ones.
