Tips:

  • Choose thick asparagus spears: Thicker spears will hold up better during cooking and provide a more satisfying bite.
  • Trim the asparagus spears properly: Cut off the woody ends of the asparagus spears, about 1-2 inches from the bottom.
  • Cook the asparagus spears until tender-crisp: Overcooking the asparagus will make it mushy, so cook it just until it is tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Use high-quality Parmesan cheese: Freshly grated Parmesan cheese will provide the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the asparagus spears, don't overcrowd the pan, or they will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the asparagus spears immediately: Asparagus spears are best served immediately after cooking, while they are still hot and crispy.

Conclusion:
