Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Place asparagus in a large plastic bag. Drizzle half the olive oil over the asparagus, seal the bag and shake until asparagus is coated evenly with the olive oil. If necessary, add only enough of the remaining olive oil to coat the asparagus. Place the asparagus in a single layer on a cookie sheet, season with salt and pepper. Bake until tender or crunchy depending upon your preference, about 12 to 20 minutes.
- Tips: (Shortcut chef) Toss asparagus with oil, salt and pepper as directed below and store in refrigerator until you're ready to bake it off. Get into the habit of spending 5 to 15 minutes prepping tonight or tomorrow's dinner during the day and you will be eating in more than out. The weight will come off quicker with home cooked healthful meals and you know it.
- Tip: From mom's lips to your ears: You forgot to tell them to snap off the woody bottoms. Tell em to hold asparagus, one at a time, in their hands near the cut end and snap it like kindling. Mother Nature saw to it that the asparagus breaks in just the right spot, save the ends for stock.
- Morph: Serve one other simple veggie side and a piece of oven baked fish such as salmon and dinner is all done. Cook off extra asparagus and throw it into a frittata, polenta, or pasta later in the week.
- If the Queen's coming for dinner, toss cooked asparagus with fresh lemon, plate and garnish with thin curls of Parmesan.
- Tip: Asparagus starts losing its sweetness the minute it's cut, therefore, as always, look for the freshest stalks possible. Skins should be smooth and bright colored with tightly formed heads.
BEST EVER ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH MUSHROOMS
This is an easy dish I literally threw together for dinner one night. It's deliciously simple! I have indicated this recipe serves 2-4 people. That is because DH and I really enjoy asparagus and prefer large portions of the vegetable. Please feel free to decrease your portion size to serve more people if desired.

Tips:
- Choose the right asparagus. Look for thick, firm spears with tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are thin, limp, or have open tips.
- Trim the asparagus properly. Cut off the tough, woody ends of the asparagus spears. You can do this by snapping off the ends where they naturally break, or you can use a sharp knife to trim them.
- Cook the asparagus until it is tender-crisp. Asparagus should be cooked until it is bright green and tender, but still has a slight crunch to it. Overcooked asparagus will be mushy and lose its flavor.
- Use high-quality portobello mushrooms. Portobello mushrooms should be firm and have a deep, earthy flavor. Avoid mushrooms that are slimy or have bruises.
- Clean the portobello mushrooms thoroughly. Use a damp cloth to wipe the mushrooms clean. Do not wash them under running water, as this can make them soggy.
- Cook the portobello mushrooms until they are tender and juicy. Portobello mushrooms should be cooked until they are tender and juicy, but still have a little bit of a bite to them. Overcooked mushrooms will be tough and chewy.
- Use fresh thyme. Fresh thyme has a more intense flavor than dried thyme. If you are using dried thyme, use half the amount called for in the recipe.
- Serve the asparagus and portobello mushrooms immediately. This dish is best served hot and fresh. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
This baked asparagus with portobello mushrooms and thyme is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special dish for a dinner party, this recipe is sure to please.
