Description
Air Fryer Parmesan Asparagus is a simple Spring side dish. It's ready in less than 15 minutes, and is so good you won't be able to stop eating it!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound fresh asparagus
- 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup grated or finely shredded parmesan cheese
- lemon wedges, for serving
- sea salt, to taste
Instructions
- Prep the asparagus. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F for 5 minutes. Trim the tough ends off the asparagus. Toss with olive oil and season with sea salt.
- Air Fry. Place the asparagus in the air fryer basket and spread out evenly. Air fry for 4 minutes. Turn the asparagus and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Air fry for an additional 3-5 minutes until cheese is melted, and asparagus is tender but still crisp.
- Serve. Place on a serving dish with some lemon wedges for squeezing (optional). Enjoy!
Notes
If you'd like to make this in the oven instead of an air fryer, bake in a preheated oven at 425°F for 15-18 minutes, adding cheese during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
