Ingredients

  • 1 pound asparagus, washed, ends trimmed
  • 2 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon pepper, I used Tome’s brand

Instructions

  • Add asparagus to a medium bowl and spray with olive oil.
  • Sprinkle with seasonings and toss to coat.
  • Add to the air fryer basket and cook at 400° for 10 minutes, turning oven halfway through.
  • Remove and enjoy.

Notes

  • Preheat for Even Cooking: It ensures even cooking and helps the asparagus come out perfectly tender with crisp edges.
  • Trim the Stalks (Optional): Trimming and peeling the base helps reduce waste and makes woody spear ends more tender.
  • Cool Before Storing: Let the asparagus cool completely before sealing in an airtight container to help maintain texture and freshness.
