Ingredients
* 48 asparagus spears approximately 2 bunches
* cooking spray or use 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1 tablespoon lemon juice
* 1 tsp salt
* 1/2 tsp pepper
* 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
* 1/4 cup water
Instructions
* Preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) while you get everything else ready.
* Cut the woody ends off the asparagus spears and wash them thoroughly. Pat them dry with paper towels.
* Add the asparagus spears to a large bowl and spray them with the cooking spray. Add the lemon juice, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Toss very well to coat.
* Arrange the asparagus spears in a single layer in your air fryer, being careful to not over-crowd them. You might have to air fry in two batches.
* Add 1/4 cup water at the bottom of your Air Fryer. If you don’t add the water, the asparagus will dry out and become brown and crispy. With the addition of the water, the asparagus will be bright green, tender and slightly browned and crisp on top.
* Air fry at 375 F (190 C) for 5-7 minutes. Please keep in mind that the timing depends on your Air Fryer, how crowded your basket/tray is and how well done you prefer your asparagus.
* Our favourite way to eat this asparagus is while it's still vibrant green, with a moist stem, a bit of a bite and a little browning on top. If you're not happy with how cooked your asparagus is after 5 minutes, shake your basket/tray and give it another minute or two.
* Serve hot with some butter on top, if desired (optional).
Notes
Storage Instructions
This asparagus will keep well in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 5 days.
Reheating Instructions
Place your asparagus in your Air Fryer . Add 1/3 cup of water on the bottom of your Air Fryer and run it at 350 F (175 C) for 3-5 minutes shaking the basket/tray halfway.
How to Cook Frozen Asparagus in the Air Fryer
* Preheat your Air Fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
* Don’t thaw your frozen asparagus at all. If there’s excess ice buildup on your asparagus rinse them under water and dry them with paper towels.
* Add the asparagus to a bowl and mix with the oil spray and spices.
* Do not add water to the Air Fryer basket.
* Place in the Air Fryer basket/tray and air fry at 400 F (200 C) for 5 minutes.
* Remove and shake well. Air fry again for another 4-7 minutes.
