Baked Asparagus

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings 6 people

Ingredients

  • 1 pound asparagus washed and ends trimmed
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • Balsamic vinegar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400º. Place asparagus in a large baking dish and sprinkle with olive oil. Arrange in a single layer and roll to evenly coat. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 12-15 minutes until asparagus is tender when pierced with a knife. Remove from oven.
  • With a vegetable peeler, shave Parmigiano-Reggiano into slivers. Scatter the cheese over the asparagus and return the dish to the oven. Continue baking just until the cheese softens, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Place the asparagus on warmed plates and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Serve.
