Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh asparagus
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix
- 0.333 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 pieces lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Wash and trim the asparagus by snapping off the woody ends. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Place the asparagus on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Toss until evenly coated.
Sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper over the asparagus. Use clean hands or tongs to toss the asparagus until the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the asparagus.
Return the asparagus to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Remove the asparagus from the oven and transfer to a serving platter.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for a bright and zesty finish.
