How to Make Asparagus Parmigiana

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

  6. Add the asparagus to the skillet and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  7. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese over the asparagus. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 2 minutes.
  9. Transfer the skillet to the broiler and broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
  10. Remove from oven, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice, and serve immediately.
