Lemon Lovers' Asparagus
Roast whole slices of lemon along with the asparagus for a beautiful look
and sparkling, bright taste. Great with seafood, especially salmon or
scallops.

Makes 4 servings.

2 bunches asparagus, tough ends trimmed
2 lemons, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Preheat oven to 450 F. Toss asparagus, lemon slices, oil, oregano, salt and
pepper on a large rimmed baking sheet. Roast, shaking the pan occasionally to
toss, until the asparagus is tender-crisp, 13 to 15 minutes.
