Ingredients
Olive oil

1 tablespoon butter
4 to 5 asparagus stalks, per person

Wash asparagus and break off ends (bend the end of the stems until they break off naturally, rather than cutting). Toss asparagus with a little olive oil and roast for 10 minutes in a 500 degree F preheated oven. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Toss with 1 tablespoon butter, sprinkle salt and pepper, and bake at 450 degrees F for 15 minutes more.
