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


Test Kitchen tips
  • In order to keep asparagus fresh longer, place the cut stems in a container of cold water—similar to flowers in a vase. Place container in the refrigerator, changing the water at least once every 2 days.
  • When buying asparagus, look for firm, straight, uniform-size spears. The tips should be closed and dry.
