Looking for a new and quick vegetable dish? Parmesan Panko Asparagus Fries are a great way to prepare asparagus that even your most reluctant vegetable eater will find enticing. I like to serve these with grilled hamburgers, easy to prepare and then pop in the oven when the burgers are going on the grill. A winning combination.
Parmesan Panko Asparagus Fries
Ingredients
- 1 bunch fresh asparagus
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup Panko bread crumbs
- salt and pepper
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray. In three shallow bowls place these in ingredients, bowl 1 - flour seasoned with salt and pepper, bowl 2 - eggs, well beaten, bowl 3 - Parmesan and panko crumbs. Rinse asparagus, cut off tough stems. Dip individual spears first in the flour, then in the eggs, them roll in the crumb mixture. Place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all spears have been coated. Season all spears again with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove and serve with your favorite dipping sauce, I served mine with ranch dressing.
