Crispy Parmesan and Panko Asparagus

Here’s an easy way to make asparagus crispy and delicious with very few ingredients at hand. Simply dip the asparagus stalks in egg whites, dredge them through a panko parmesan mixture and it is ready to bake!

Feel free to add paprika for more seasoning goodness or add a splash of lemon juice just before serving for some zest. I got the idea for this from my Parmesan Crusted Tilapia.  It has some similarities, but with the added crunchy power of panko breadcrumbs.

      Thank you! Just be sure to eat them hot as just like fries, they get soggy if left to sit.

      The only tedious part is the breading. Just requires a little patience.
