We love asparagus. My husband LOVES asparagus! And we've decided we like it best a little crunchy, and al dente if you will :)
When you cook asparagus at a high temperature, it concentrates its flavor and guarantees a tender (and not mushy) texture. Sprinkle crunchy breadcrumbs on the asparagus just before serving for extra texture.
Ingredients
2 lbs asparagus, trimmed
1 tbs olive oil
Course salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tbs unsalted butter
1/2 C panko bread crumbs
1/2 lemon juice and zest
Directions
Preheat oven to 425. Arrange asparagus on baking sheet, and drizzle with oil. Season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Roast until tender, 18 - 20 min, then transfer to platter.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium a skillet over medium heat. Add panko, and cook stirring frequently until deep golden brown, 8 - 10 min. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice and zest. Season with salt.
