Gourmet Garlic Buttered Asparagus
Ingredients
- 1 lb asparagus, washed and trimmed
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice (optional)
- shaved Parmesan cheese, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C).
- Arrange the asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
- Drizzle the melted butter and garlic over the asparagus, making sure to coat each piece evenly.
- Season the asparagus with salt and black pepper, to taste.
- Roast the asparagus in the oven for 10 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned.
- Remove the asparagus from the oven and drizzle with freshly squeezed lemon juice, if desired.
- Serve the asparagus hot, garnished with shaved Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Notes
- Make sure to wash the asparagus thoroughly and trim off the tough ends before cooking.
- For a deeper flavor, you can also grill the asparagus instead of roasting it in the oven.
- If you don’t have parchment paper, you can use aluminum foil to line the baking sheet.
- To make this dish vegan-friendly, use vegan butter instead of regular butter.
- For a twist, you can also add some chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, or rosemary, to the melted butter and garlic mixture before drizzling it over the asparagus.
