Elevate your asparagus game with our Roasted Asparagus with Bacon recipe, featuring crispy bacon, grated Parmesan, and savory seasonings for a delicious keto-friendly side dish.
Grasp the stem at each end and apply gentle pressure, bending it until it naturally breaks apart.
Discard the woody ends and use the tender part for baking.
In case you don't like tough skin on your asparagus, you can peel it off. Use a vegetable peeler and glide it along the stem, starting from 2 inches above the bottom of the spear. Apply light pressure and rotate the stalk as you go.
Bake the asparagus
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Place the trimmed and peeled asparagus spears on a baking dish.
Drizzle olive oil and sprinkle the garlic powder, sea salt, and freshly cracked black pepper.
Toss the asparagus gently with your hands to ensure they are well coated in oil and seasonings.
Then, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over them and add crumbled bacon pieces.
Carefully place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for about 12-15 minutes until the asparagus spears are tender and slightly browned.
Transfer to a serving plate and serve warm.
