This air fryer asparagus recipe is an easy and delicious veggie side dish! The asparagus spears come out tender and juicy, with perfectly browned, crispy tips.
In a large bowl, drizzle the asparagus with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
Place the asparagus spears in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Don’t overcrowd the basket. Work in batches if necessary. Roast asparagus in the air fryer for 6 to 8 minutes, flipping halfway, until the spears are tender and the tops are crisp. The exact timing will depend on your air fryer.
Transfer to a platter, squeeze with lemon juice, season to taste, and serve.
