A delightful twist on roasted asparagus, enhanced with garlic and sesame flavors for a perfect side dish.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and optimal texture.
Wash the asparagus and trim off the tough ends.
Use a sharp knife or snap the ends off naturally to remove the woody parts.
In a mixing bowl, combine the asparagus, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Ensure all spears are evenly coated for consistent flavor.
Spread the asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Avoid overcrowding to allow proper roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the asparagus is tender and slightly caramelized.
Turning the asparagus ensures even cooking and prevents burning.
Serve the roasted asparagus warm, optionally garnished with toasted sesame seeds or a drizzle of additional sesame oil.
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
