Bright, zesty, and simple -  this roasted asparagus recipe makes the perfect side dish for any meal. The citrusy kick from fresh lemon and Borsari Olive Oil or Borsari Citrus Seasoning adds a refreshing twist that pairs beautifully with butter or olive oil.

Ingredients

• 1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed
• 2 tbsp butter or Borsari Olive Oil
• 1 lemon (zested and sliced)
• 1 tbsp Borsari Citrus Seasoning

2. Place asparagus on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil or dot with butter.
3. Sprinkle with Borsari Seasoning and toss gently to coat.
4. Add lemon zest and arrange lemon slices over the asparagus.
5. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until asparagus is tender-crisp and slightly golden.

Pro Tips 🌟

• For extra flavor, sprinkle a little grated Parmesan over the asparagus during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
• Try using both zest and juice from the lemon for a brighter citrus punch.
• To keep asparagus crisp, avoid overcrowding the pan - give the spears some space so they roast evenly.
