Lemon-Parmesan Broiled Asparagus
These special spears are packed with flavor, thanks to the lemon-garlic dressing they're tossed in before roasting. It's a simple, quick side that goes with almost anything. —Tina Repak, Johnstown, Pennsylvania

Reviews
I used lime peel instead of the lemon zest! The lime zest gave the asparagus a tangy flavor and the dressing was delicious on the broiled asparagus! What a tasty side dish!
This recipe takes asparagus to another level. I followed the recipe exactly except that I baked it (350 degrees for 30 - 35 minutes) instead of broiling..... I was baking fish for dinner and decided to bake the asparagus as well. The mayonnaise and lemon zest give it a refreshing flavor. I also served it with lemon wedges (since I was serving it with fish). Five stars for sure! Volunteer Field Editor
