Baked Parmesan Asparagus

Baked Parmesan Asparagus
Baked Parmesan Asparagus is crisp and delicious.  This asparagus is great with grilled steaks, chicken, or fish. This side dish is quick and easy and can be ready in 10 minutes flat.  This is one of my go-to sides that everyone loves.

Ingredients
1- lb Asparagus (I prefer the thin stalks)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste
Olive Oil

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wash asparagus, and trim off bottom 2" of stalk.  On a baking pan lined with aluminum foil, place asparagus in a single layer and drizzle with Olive Oil (about 2 tablespoons).  Sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese and salt and pepper.  With hands, toss asparagus, making sure cheese and oil are evenly distributed. Bake in oven for about 7 to 8 minutes.
