Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh asparagus
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
  • Cut off the woody part of the asparagus and discard.
  • With a veggie peeler, peel off the bottom 2" of the asparagus skin. This will help you to avoid having those stringy pieces.
  • Place the asparagus, olive oil and kosher salt together in a large ziploc bag. Shake until each piece of asparagus has a light coating of oil and salt.
  • Place the asparagus on a foil lined baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes. The spears should be tender when pierced with a fork or knife.
