Categories     Vegetable

Time 24m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup breadcrumbs, preferably homemade
1/2 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
1 1/2 lbs asparagus
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan.
  • Rinse asparagus and break off woody bottoms. Peel if thick. Lay stalks in a baking dish that will hold them in two or three layers. If the asparagus are thick, add a splash of water. Drizzle with the olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper; place in oven.
  • Roast until the asparagus are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Test for doneness by piercing a spear with point of a sharp knife; it should slide in but meet a little resistance. (Up to this point, the recipe can be made as much as two hours before serving; just leave asparagus at room temperature.).
  • Turn on broiler and place rack as close as possible to heating element. Top asparagus with cheese-crumb mixture and run under broiler to brown for 1-2 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

THE BEST ROASTED ASPARAGUS



The Best Roasted Asparagus image

The perfect roasted asparagus should be lightly browned and tender, yet bright green and crisp. Roasting the spears at a high temperature helps achieve this. We also browned grated Parmesan to make a nutty, crumbly frico topping. Wait until ready to serve to top the vegetables so the crisped cheese stays crunchy.

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound thin asparagus, trimmed
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 1 1/2 ounces)
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Juice of 1/4 lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
  • Put the asparagus, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Toss to coat evenly. Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned and tender, but still bright green.
  • Meanwhile, spread the Parmesan evenly in the bottom of a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook undisturbed until the cheese melts, sticks together and turns golden brown, about 2 minutes, then flip with a rubber spatula and cook until golden on the second side, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the frico to a wire rack-lined baking sheet to cool completely, about 2 minutes. Break the frico into small crumbles and put in a small bowl. Add the lemon zest and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and toss to combine.
  • Transfer the roasted asparagus to a serving platter and squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the top. Top with the crumbled frico mixture.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH PARMESAN CREAM SAUCE



Roasted Asparagus with Parmesan Cream Sauce image

This easy side dish has loads of Parmesan flavor, yet it tastes light enough to not overpower the asparagus. The sauce comes together in minutes while the asparagus roasts in the oven. Quick enough for a busy weeknight meal. Use freshly shredded Parmesan cheese, as the bagged variety doesn't melt well.

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables     Asparagus     Baked

Time 20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup low-fat milk
¾ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste
1 pinch lemon zest

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place asparagus on the baking sheet and season with salt and black pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and lightly toss to coat evenly.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until asparagus is tender-crisp, about 10 minutes for thin asparagus, or 14 minutes for large asparagus.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and stir for 1 to 2 minutes until softened, taking care not to burn garlic. Sprinkle flour onto butter and cook, whisking constantly until mixture is golden and thick, 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in milk and bring to a light boil until sauce starts to thicken, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Sprinkle in Parmesan cheese and continue whisking until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat - sauce will further thicken.
  • Place asparagus on a serving platter and drizzle with cheese sauce. Garnish with lemon zest and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right asparagus. Look for asparagus spears that are bright green and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are limp or have brown or yellow spots.
  • Trim the asparagus. Cut off the tough ends of the asparagus spears, about 1-2 inches from the bottom.
  • Roast the asparagus at a high temperature. This will help to caramelize the asparagus and give it a slightly crispy texture.
  • Add flavorings before roasting. You can add olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, or other seasonings to the asparagus before roasting. You can also drizzle the asparagus with a balsamic vinegar reduction or a lemon-herb vinaigrette.
  • Serve the asparagus immediately. Roasted asparagus is best served immediately, while it is still hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Roasted asparagus is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. It is easy to make and can be customized to your taste preferences. With its bright green color and slightly crispy texture, roasted asparagus is a surefire hit at any meal.
