My buddy gave me the recipe after she prepared it for a potluck at work. Both the making and eating of it are relatively simple. I’ve prepared it multiple times, and I hope you like the slightly unique take on chicken that I’ve given it. Serve with sourdough French bread.

Ingredients
- olive oil cooking spray
- 1 pound fresh asparagus, tough ends trimmed
- ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, or to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Spray the inside of a 9×13 casserole dish with olive oil cooking spray. Place asparagus in the dish and lightly spray spears with cooking spray.
- Sprinkle asparagus with Parmesan cheese, sea salt, and garlic powder.
- Roast in preheated oven until fork easily punctures thickest part of stem, about 12 minutes.
- Cook’s note:
- The best way to keep fresh asparagus for a long while in the refrigerator is to slice off the stems and then stand them in a bowl with a couple of inches of water in the bottom. It keeps for a very long time this way. Add water as necessary.

Garlic was a nice add! It took 20 minutes to cook. I used shredded Parmesan. It did not melt. Gross! Next time I get a block of Parmesan and hand grate it.
Simple and oh so delicious.
I like to use minced garlic and olive oil. Other than that this is on point!
I never liked asparagus until I tried it this way. The cheese makes it great!
The favor of this dish was great and it’s very easy. My downfall was the variety of sizes of stalks of asparagus so it took longer to cook the more thick ones. But very easy and delicious. – April 2023
I needed to bake these 15 minutes to be tender.
super easy and tasted great
This recipe is DELICIOUS! Instead of just olive oil, I drizzled it lightly with Italian vinegarette, along with the garlic, seasoned salt, pepper and parm. I make 10 lbs every Easter, as everyone loves it!
Was very good and easy!
Delicious added sage to mine came out so tender
This recipe combined with boiled eggs is a fantasy!
Really good !
Loved this, super tasty and easy
We love Asparagus any way I can make it. Fresher the better.
The only thing is that the cheese doesn’t adhere to the asparagus. Next time I will sprinkle on after cooking.
Delicious
Followed recipe as written. Delicious.
So easy and good!
I am pepper and squeeze garlic. It turned out awesome
Love this recipe! Only substituted REAL Olive Oil ( about 1/4 cup or less) for the spray, turned out finger licking GOOD. Great side dish
I used fresh garlic and olive oil. Cooked longer for more color.
