oven roasted asparagus

I have always liked asparagus, but this recipe I love! I cannot remember the last time I actually craved it the next day because it was so good! I couldn't wait to get the grocery store to buy more. Thank you Pioneer Woman!

Oven Roasted Asparagus

1 bunch Asparagus (or as much as you would like)
Olive Oil
Kosher Salt To Taste
Freshly Ground Black Pepper, To Taste

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Wash asparagus thoroughly, and lop off the tough/thick bottom an inch or so. Pay dry as much as possible.
  
• Lay the asparagus in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Generously drizzle olive oil all over the asparagus; then sprinkle generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Roast the asparagus for about 10 minutes.

The secret to it's delicious crunch is to put it in a very hot oven. This way it will brown on the outside without getting flimsy and wilty.
