Air Fried Lemon & Garlic Asparagus Recipe
The air fryer takes this asparagus to another level. Perfect to be enjoyed as a side dish or a healthy snack!
Recently I became an air fryer convert, purchasing mine a few months ago. I now feel that the air fryer can do no wrong. Since purchasing, I have experimented with many different vegetables and plenty of potato recipes. This lemon and garlic asparagus remains one of my favorites! The lemon and garlic flavors pair well with asparagus, and the air fryer can give a nice crispiness if you would like. As I am a spice lover, sometimes I will add a few red pepper flakes to this dish to give it a little kick!
Before becoming enlightened to the air fryer, I always used a conventional oven to roast my asparagus. However, this method only takes around 20 minutes, sometimes longer for me because I like my asparagus a little crispy. Nevertheless, I have found that air frying is a great way to achieve perfectly cooked asparagus in half the time. The smell of this recipe cooking will have your mouth watering, I promise!
