Ingredients
  • 2 pounds fresh thick asparagus
  • Olive oil
  • Kosher salt, plus extra for sprinkling
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Lemon
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Break off the tough ends of the asparagus and, if they're thick, peel them. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast the asparagus for 25 minutes, until tender but still crisp.
  3. Sprinkle with lemon juice.
