Lemon Garlic Roasted Asparagus

Published on May 21, 2018 by Stephanie Kay

Made with only a few simple ingredients, this lemon garlic roasted asparagus is the perfect side dish for any meal! This recipe is pretty simple to whip together and can easily be done in the oven or on the grill in the summertime. If you’ve got a little extra leftover, store it in the fridge and serve it up with some fresh eggs for breakfast, it works really well.

Lemon Garlic Roasted Asparagus

Asparagus is probably one of my favorite side dishes, but only when it’s in season. Although I do buy it at the grocery store from time to time, it can never compete with the freshness and quality of the local seasonal stuff. When in season, asparagus is so fresh it almost has a sweetness to it and works well in everything from salads to side dishes. Plus, it’s a great source of fiber and a delicious way to get more of your daily greens, and this oven-roasted asparagus is a great way to do it.
