Roasted Asparagus with Parmesan and Garlic – A Simple Recipe for a Spring Feast

As soon as spring arrives, asparagus takes center stage on our plates—tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. It’s one of those vegetables that needs very little to impress. Just a few ingredients and a few minutes in the oven are enough to create a dish perfect for a light lunch, a dinner side, or an elegant appetizer for a dinner with friends.

Today, I’m sharing a recipe for roasted asparagus with Parmesan and garlic—a dish that smells like spring and tastes even better. The combination of crispy green asparagus, aromatic garlic, and golden melted Parmesan is a true delight for the senses. Add a drizzle of olive oil and some freshly ground pepper—nothing more needed!

Why should you make it?

This recipe is quick, simple, and incredibly versatile. Just wash the asparagus, snap off the woody ends, sprinkle with grated Parmesan and chopped garlic, and roast in the oven for about 12–15 minutes. The result? Tender inside, slightly crispy outside—absolutely perfect!

It’s also a great starting point for anyone new to cooking with this seasonal vegetable. No advanced skills or hard-to-find ingredients required. It’s proof that sometimes, less really is more.

Serve your roasted asparagus with Parmesan as a starter, a side dish for meat, or with crusty bread and a glass of white wine. Trust me—it’s going to be delicious!
