How to Make Asparagus Fries With Smoky Chipotle Mayonnaise Dipping Sauce
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and trim the asparagus, removing the tough ends.
- In a bowl, toss the asparagus with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, pepper, and paprika (if using).
- Arrange the asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Roast for 12-15 minutes, or until tender-crisp and slightly browned, flipping halfway through.
- While the asparagus is roasting, prepare the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, minced chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, and lime juice.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more chipotle for extra heat.
- Carefully spoon the chipotle mayonnaise into the bottom of champagne flutes.
- Once the asparagus is cooked, carefully place the spears into the flutes on top of the sauce.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
