List of Ingredients
Baked Asparagus
Buy firm asparagus spears that are completely closed at the bud end. Fat spears are just as tender as thin ones, if you peel them slightly. To peel use a vegetable peeler and begin at the butt end, cutting more shallow as you near the tip end.
Ingredients:
Fresh asparagus (peeled)
Best quality olive oil
Freshly squeezed lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Directions:
Place the spears in a single layer in a shallow baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil (1 tablespoon per ½ lb asparagus). Bake in a preheated 500 degrees Farenheit oven 8-10 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork. Season to taste with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
