Crispy Baked Asparagus Fries


We have an asparagus bed and for the first year we are getting asparagus!  And it is good! I love it anyway it is prepared in any dish, but the majority of time I simply steam it.  So I'm always keeping an eye out for new ways to use it.  This is a keeper.  A delicious crispy coating keeps the inside tender.  I don't even mind the fact that I have to turn the oven on because they only take about 10 minutes to bake.  Enjoy!

CRISPY BAKED ASPARAGUS FRIES 

1 pound asparagus, trimmed
1/2 cup flour
2 eggs, lightly beaten
3/4 cup Panko (plain) breadcrumbs
1/4 Parmesan cheese, grated
S&P to taste

Dredge the asparagus in the flour, dip them in the egg, and then into a mixture of the Panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan, S&P.

Place the asparagus on a wire rack on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 425F oven until golden brown, about 7-13 minutes (depending on size of asparagus).
