Broiled Asparagus
Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh asparagus spears, washed and trimmed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 1 lemon, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat your broiler to high heat.
- Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and place the asparagus spears on the sheet.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the asparagus and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Use your hands to toss the asparagus until evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
- Arrange the lemon slices over the asparagus.
- Place the baking sheet under the broiler and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and lightly browned.
- Remove the baking sheet from the broiler and transfer the asparagus and lemon slices to a serving platter.
- Serve the broiled asparagus immediately, garnished with additional lemon slices if desired.
Notes
- Use fresh asparagus spears for the best flavor and texture. Look for firm, bright green spears with tightly closed tips.
- Wash the asparagus thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. Trim off the woody ends of the spears by snapping them off where they naturally break.
- Toss the asparagus with the olive oil and seasonings using your hands to ensure that the spears are evenly coated.
- Use a timer to keep track of the cooking time and check the asparagus frequently to avoid overcooking or burning.
- Broiling the lemon slices with the asparagus adds a delicious citrus flavor to the dish. Don’t skip this step!

➡️ Cooking broiled asparagus is very easy and doesn’t pose any difficulty for beginner home chefs. One of the simplest recipes requires quickly stirring some butter and olive oil and sauteing the asparagus in a pan for a few minutes until becomes soft.

Finally, place it on a baking dish and broil the asparagus for about 5 minutes, or until the tip of the asparagus is tender and the spears still have a little crunch.
