FULL RECIPE

Serving Size: 2

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 5 minutes

Green Giant product(s) used: Green Giant® Asparagus Spears Extra Long

Lists of ingredients:

  • 1 can (15 ounce) Green Giant® Asparagus Spears Extra Long, drained

    1 tablespoon olive oil

    ½ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (divided)

    ⅛ teaspoon black pepper

    Lemon wedges for serving

STEPS

1 Heat oven to Broil. Place asparagus in an oven safe baking dish or baking pan and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat. Spread in a single layer and sprinkle with ¼ cup parmesan cheese.
2 Broil for 4-5 minutes, just until cheese is golden brown.
3 Serve hot, topped with remaining parmesan cheese, black pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice.

TIPS & TRICKS

Serve this as a side with grilled or broiled steak, chicken, or seafood.

For extra color and flavor, garnish with halved multicolor cherry tomatoes.

We get two flavors from a single ingredient by toasting half of the parmesan to bring out its rich, nutty flavor, and sprinkling the rest on top just before serving for an extra hit of fresh cheese flavor. This technique is a flavor two-fer you can apply to just about any dish, from vegetables to pizza, pasta, and gratins.
