Absolutely delicious, easy to prepare recipe. I followed the directions as stated. Next time I make this, I will cut down on the cooking time, though. I think 10-15 minutes to bake, and then another 10-15 after tossing the asparagus would be more to our taste (and I dont like mine overly crunchy). Thank you for this wonderful recipe. I will definitely be making it again.

Excellent way to enjoy asparagus! I love veggies and I love roasted veggies, but for some reason, I don't think I've ever roasted asparagus. I didn't have fresh thyme, so I used a blend from Penzey's. Very easy recipe to assemble. While roasting, my home smelled wonderful! It's also a very elegant dish--asparagus are very 'plate friendly'. Their deep color especially, after roasting, really pleases all your senses!

YUM! YUM! YUM! Rita these were fantastic! The key I think to these asparagus is the fresh thyme. Waht great flavor it added to the asparagus. Please don't use dried thyme in place of the fresh. It was so easy to make.I put them on the grill to roast. I will make this recipe again!

This was delicious, Rita! I love the butter/olive oil combo. I had to use dried thyme, but it was still great! I wasn't sure whether to cover this, so I did. Also cooked for only a total of 30 minutes, but I like my asparagus very crunchy! This is a keeper! Thanks!

Asparagus never had it so good! The garlic and fresh thyme complemented the asparagus without overpowering it and roasting everything really developed the flavors beautifully. DH, who isn’t is huge asparagus fan to begin with, asked for seconds, so this is going to be on our table a lot this summer! Thanks so much for sharing this super simple and super tasty recipe.

Another winning recipe. I had to use dried thyme and reduced the cooking time to 10 minutes, stir and another 10. The asparagus was perfect in that time frame.
