Ingredients
- Freshly trimmed asparagus weighing 2 pounds
- A drizzle of olive oil, just a tablespoon
- A generous splash of Swanson® Vegetable Broth, around ½ cup
- Softly crumbled goat cheese, 3 ounces worth
- A hint of tangy lemon juice, a tablespoon to be precise
- Finely grated lemon zest, about a teaspoon
Step 1
Preheat your oven to a toasty 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Give your roasting pan a quick spritz with some handy vegetable cooking spray.
Step 2
Now, toss the fresh asparagus in with a drizzle of oil, ensuring they're nicely coated. Season the green stalks to your heart's content, and pour in that flavorful broth.
Step 3
Pop the pan in the oven and let the asparagus roast for about 20 minutes or until they reach that perfect tenderness, remembering to give them a gentle stir halfway through. Once done, sprinkle on some cheese for a melty finish, a squeeze of zesty lemon juice for a burst of freshness, and a sprinkle of lemon zest for that extra pop of flavor. Enjoy your delicious creation!
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Make sure to store your asparagus upright in a glass of water, just like a bouquet of flowers. This will keep them fresh and crisp for longer.
- 2. When storing your creamy goat cheese, wrap it in parchment paper before placing it in an airtight container. This will help preserve its flavor and prevent it from absorbing any unwanted odors.
