I like to do the asparagus in the oven, as it takes no watching and i can avoid overcooking it more easily. I like to do this for weekend brunch with Bacon and Cheese Omelet (also an oven preparation) by ellie2 (#102568) and i throw in some of the potatoes i keep available frozen from my own recipe Herb Roasted Potatoes (#30210) Makes a pretty breakfast, too. Ingredients:
1 lb fresh asparagus, any woody ends removed |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 teaspoon orange zest |
1 clove garlic, minced |
pepper |
1/4 teaspoon morton lite salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Spray a baking dish, or use non-stick.
3. lay asparagus on dish.
4. drizzle olive oil over it all.
5. sprinkle with garlic,orange zest pepper& lite salt.
6. roll the asparagus around to coat.
7. Bake 400 for about 10-15 minutes.
8. **irecently saw Bergy's Asparagus, Oven Roasted (#11040).
9. and will be cutting down the time when i make this next-i may still have been cooking it too long.
