Oven Roasted Asparagus

Ingredients

1 bunch asparagus spears

3 tbsp olive oil

1 ½ tbsp grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

1 clove garlic, minced (optional)

1 tsp sea salt

1/2 tsp ground black pepper

1 tbsp lemon juice (optional)

Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Place the asparagus into a mixing bowl, and drizzle with the olive oil. Toss to coat the spears, then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the asparagus onto a baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake in the preheated oven until just tender, 12 to 15 minutes depending on thickness.
Sprinkle it with lemon juice just before serving.
