    To me, this one is really delicious:

    But I really do like my asparagus so it's pretty simplistic. But so yummy!

    I like to roast it in a super hot oven with a little extra virgin olive oil and salt and pepper

    I bake it. I drizzle or spray with olive oil, use garlic pepper and sprinkle asiago or or Parmesan cheese then bake at 350 for 15-20 min.

    I pan sear mine with garlic, a bit of salt and some rosemary olive oil.... tastes great... still crispy and has a fresh green flavor... I recommend using a wok.

    I just steam mine on the stove with one of those veggie steamer basket things- I add salt/pepper when it's done and it's pretty darn tasty- But I like asparagus a great deal.
