Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425ºF (218°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Step 2
Wash the asparagus and snap or chop off the bottoms of the stalks.
Step 3
In a large bowl, toss in the olive oil and mix well.
Step 4
Spread the asparagus on the baking sheet in a single layer and sprinkle garlic powder, oregano, and a tiny bit of salt on the asparagus.
Step 5
Bake for about 8-10 minutes.
Step 6
While the asparagus spears are cooking, prepare the creamy cilantro-lime sauce.
Step 7
Rinse the cilantro and chop off the bottoms. It is fine to leave some of the stem in tact.

Add all ingredients into a food processor or blender and mix until well incorporated.
Step 9
Remove the asparagus from the oven once they look tender. When they are slightly cool, drizzle on the creamy cilantro-lime sauce.
