List of Ingredients

1 pound fresh asparagus
4 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
black pepper and salt, to taste


Recipe

Break tough ends off asparagus. Place in Ziploc bag. Cook garlic and parsley in oil for 3 minutes. Pour garlic oil over asparagus. Toss to coat. Lay coated asparagus stalks in baking tray, making sure they don't overlap. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake in 400ºF oven for 5-8 minutes, or until asparagus is tender.

NOTES: For extra flavor and a classy presentation, wrap 4-5 stalks together with a slice of uncooked bacon, securing with a toothpick. Repeat with remaining stalks. Spoon any left over garlic oil over bunches. Bake additional 5 minutes.
