Steps

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Pat the asparagus dry and toss it on a rimmed sheet pan with the oil, salt and a few grinds of pepper, then spread in a single layer.

  2. Roast until bright green, tender when pierced near the base and lightly crisp at the tips, 8 to 12 minutes; pencil-thin spears are done closer to 8 minutes, thick ones closer to 12.

  3. Move to a platter, finely grate the lemon zest over the top and scatter with the shaved Parmesan. Cut the lemon into wedges for squeezing at the table.
