Garlic Butter Roasted Asparagus Recipe
Garlic Butter Roasted Asparagus makes a quick and easy, delicious side dish recipe!
Oh asparagus, how I love thee! I could eat it every single night and never tire of it and this garlic butter roasted version is one of my absolute favorite ways to make it!
To make it, I snap the tough ends off of my asparagus and arrange them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Then, I mix together my melted butter, garlic, salt and pepper and drizzle it over the top of the asparagus. Next, I gently toss the asparagus to make sure it is well coated and then just pop it into the oven to roast.
Ready in minutes, this delicious roasted asparagus is a definite go-to recipe in my house. It is great with beef, chicken, pork, and fish!
Here’s my Garlic Butter Roasted Asparagus Recipe. I hope you love it.
