For a richer flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before serving. If you prefer a more intense garlic flavor, you can roast whole garlic cloves alongside the asparagus and then mash them into a paste to spread over the spears after baking. Parmesan cheese can be sprinkled over the asparagus in the last few minutes of baking. Thicker asparagus spears may require a slightly longer baking time.
