Garlic Zing Roasted Asparagus
Roasted garlicy asparagus, great as a side or appetizer.
Steps
Use fresh asparagus with thin stalks - i have found the older and thicker the stalk , the stringer the end result will be.
It does not affect taste for me , but texture is a big part of my meal as well.
In a sheet pan lay out asparagus.
Drizzle veggies with oil.
Sprinkle garlic powder over veggies.
Place in preheated hot oven.
Cook for 7- 10 minutes.
Garlic powder will burn , so keep an eye on your asparagus.
I usually start to check when i can hear frying.
I will also take them out after 3 minutes and flip - i like them toasty.
Pierce thickest stalk to check for tenderness.
Salt to taste.
Serve hot for best result - but will be ok if warm.
I like to pair them with beef dishes because gravy sets this dish off perfectly.
