Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet
  • 1 Sheet of Parchment Paper

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Pound Fresh Asparagus
  • ½ Teaspoon Salt
  • ½ Teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ¼ Teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

Instructions
 

  • Start by cutting off the last 1-2 inches of the asparagus stalk. Then cut each stalk in half.
  • Add the asparagus halves into a large mixing bowl with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Use tongs to mix together until the asparagus is evenly coated.
  • Then, line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the asparagus halves on the baking sheet with a little space between each stalk. Bake at 375 degrees for about 15 minutes.
  • Finally, remove from the oven and serve hot!

Notes

Expert Tips

  • The easiest way to evenly coat the asparagus in seasoning is by using tongs.
  • For best results, do not over bake or they will become tough.
  • Try to pick out thicker stalks of asparagus for this recipe. I find they come out better when you bake them. Skinnier stalks can get a little dry and stringy very easily in the oven.
  • Use a large baking sheet when making this recipe to ensure that you can spread out a single layer of the asparagus.

How To Store Leftovers

Store leftover balsamic roasted asparagus in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
If you're looking for a fun way to use up leftovers, chop up the asparagus into bite sized pieces and add into a frittata or omelet for breakfast!
