Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and trim your asparagus. I like to trim off 1 to 2 inches, before cooking.

Now sprinkle salt and pinch of black pepper before putting the dish in the oven
After 10-12 minutes, remove the dish from the oven. Zest your lemon evenly over the asparagus
Now sprinkle your Parmesan or Pecorino cheese evenly over the asparagus. Return to the oven for 3-5 minutes.
Transfer your Roasted Asparagus to the a serving platter and squeeze fresh lemon over the dish. Enjoy!
