Place the asparagus on the baking sheet and drizzle with the olive oil. Toss to coat the asparagus, then arrange the asparagus spaced evenly in a single layer.
Roast the asparagus for about 5 minutes.
Remove the asparagus from the oven and rearrange the spears so that they are still in a single layer but move them very close together (or even touching each other).
Sprinkle the spears with Parmesan cheese and return them to the oven until they are cooked to your desired tenderness, probably about 3−5 more minutes.
Remove the asparagus from the oven, sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve hot.
Enjoy!
