Hands down, asparagus has become one of my favorite vegetables. Here are (in my opinion) the best and easiest ways to cook asparagus.
The Best and Easiest Ways to Cook Asparagus
- Stir fry it in olive oil: Our favorite way to cook asparagus is to stir it around for a few minutes in hot olive oil in a cast iron skillet. Sprinkle on some sea salt and it tastes incredible!
- Roast it: Brush it with olive oil, sprinkle on some sea salt, then roast it in a 425 degree oven for 10-20 minutes or until the asparagus has reached your preferred crispiness level. Super good!
- Grill it: This obviously doesn’t work very well in the fall and winter, but if you throw asparagus onto the grill while you’re cooking meat in the spring and summer, it tastes amazing!
None of these methods are difficult in the least. All of them turn out fabulous tasting asparagus with very little effort.
