Ingredients:
| 2 pounds | fresh asparagus |
| good olive oil | |
| kosher salt, plus extra for sprinkling | |
| freshly ground black pepper |
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Break off the tough ends of the asparagus and, if they're thick, peel them. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast the asparagus for 25 minutes, until tender but still crisp.
