Roasted asparagus is a quick and easy side dish, and high-heat roasting is one of our favorite ways to cook the green stalks. Simply toss them with olive oil, arrange on a rimmed baking sheet, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan. The cheese adds an irresistible umami flavor. The asparagus goes in the oven for a hands-off side dish that makes pulling together the rest of your meal even easier. Even better, this fast side dish takes 20 minutes from start to table.
