- Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving plate. Squeeze fresh lemon over the asparagus and top with chopped chives.

Tips for Making this Recipe
- Peeling the outside of the white asparagus is a must because the exterior is tougher than green asparagus.
- Store the roasted asparagus wrapped in aluminum foil or a plastic bag or place it in a shallow, airtight container. It will last for 3-5 days in the refrigerator.
