Constantly looking for new ways to enjoy this vegetable, this recipe right here takes the cake! With this Crispy Garlic Parmesan Salmon and Crispy Baked Shrimp Scampi still going crazy on Facebook, I thought what would happen if I merged THAT topping with THIS vegetable. Well holy greens, it came out better than expected. So extremely addictive, It’s hard to stop at one!
How To Make Crispy Garlic Parmesan Asparagus
There’s no need for any frying to get these crispy results! All you need is an oven and a baking sheet.
Dump all ingredients into a big bowl and massage each spear with the crumb topping to evenly coat them. Don’t worry if it doesn’t ‘stick’ to the spears… you want a loose topping over them. What you DO want is all of those garlicky flavours coating each one! Bake in the oven until the crust is a beautiful and perfect golden brown colour and ENJOY!
Helpful tips:
- Works well with both fat and thick spears or thin spears.
- Use Panko for a crispy, crunchy topping and added texture, rather than plain breadcrumbs.
- Fresh grated Parmesan tastes better in this recipe.
- Unsalted butter is used to allow you to adjust the amount of salt. In this recipe we used 1/2-3/4 teaspoon.
