Air Fryer Asparagus Recipe - Spargel für Luftfritteuse

Lydia's air fryer asparagus recipe will have you craving Spring's bounty of this wonderful veggie. Germany has a love affair with white asparagus, but green asparagus is yummy as well.

Servings:

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients:

• 1 pound asparagus
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/4 cup bacon bits
• 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
• 2 teaspoons garlic salt
• 2 teaspoons paprika

Instructions:

1. Preheat air fryer to 400°F on roast.
2. Wash asparagus. Cut or snap the bottom ends off. Usually about 1 to 2 inches should snap off.
3. Lay in a single layer on air fryer baking tray and brush with olive oil.
4. Sprinkle with garlic salt and paprika, then with parmesan cheese and bacon.
5. Roast on middle rack of fryer for 5 to 7 minutes.
6. Serve right away and enjoy this lecker veggie!

Notes/Hints:

• Use whatever spices and seasonings you'd like for your asparagus. It's all up to preference!
• Serve alongside the famous air fryer schnitzel for an all-around easy German meal.
• Traditionally the asparagus would use plain salt, but I like the extra flavor of adding garlic salt.
• I know parmesan cheese isn't German, but it really fits well here. Omit if you'd like.
• If you have a different air fryer, follow the manufacturer's recommendations for adjusting temperatures and times.
