Even though it feels cold outside, it is technically spring, and therefore it is asparagus season! Asparagus are one of my favorite vegetables and can be made so many ways – steamed, sautéed, roasted, as a soup, in salads, etc. But today, I want to share this basic recipe. It is exactly what the title says – roasted asparagus with capers and breadcrumbs.
I can’t really give you exact measurements because it is more of a method than a recipe, so use your judgment based on the amount of people you are serving and the size of the asparagus. You can’t really go wrong!
