Air Fryer Asparagus

Author Nicole

Ingredients

  • 1 lb asparagus (medium width)
  • non stick cooking spray
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • zest and juice of half a lemon

Instructions

  • Preheat air fryer at 400 degrees for five minutes.
  • Take one asparagus spear and bend it. Let it break where it happens naturally. Use this as a guide to trim the rest of thee woodsy ends off the other asparagus.
  • Add the asparagus to a shallow dish or plate. Spray generously with olive oil spray. Toss. Sprinkle with salt and garlic powder. Toss again.
  • Lay half of the asparagus in the air fryer, do not crowd the basket. Set the timer for three minutes at 400 degrees. Check when there is 30 seconds left. The ends will be crispy and the stems will be bright green and slightly crisp still. If you would like them cooked a little bit more, cook the remaining 30 seconds. Repeat for remaining asparagus.
  • Zest the lemon over the asparagus, squeeze the lemon juice on top. Toss one more time. Serve!
