Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound asparagus spears
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Herbes de Provence
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 whole lemon, sliced into wedges
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Rinse the asparagus spears under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Trim the woody ends—about 1 to 2 inches from the bottom of the stalks.
Place the asparagus spears on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Drizzle the olive oil over the asparagus, ensuring each spear is lightly coated. You can use your hands or tongs to toss them gently.
Sprinkle the Herbes de Provence, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper evenly over the asparagus.
Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and slightly caramelized. Thicker stalks may require an additional 2-3 minutes.
Remove the roasted asparagus from the oven and transfer to a serving platter.
Serve with fresh lemon wedges and an optional drizzle of more olive oil for added flavor. Enjoy immediately!
