- 1 pound asparagus
- ⅓ cup + 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- ½ teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
- kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1½ tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 10 ounces mixed greens
- Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, (shaved into curls with a vegetable peeler)
Steps
Preheat the oven to 450°F. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the asparagus with 1 tablespoon of the oil and the lemon zest and season with salt and pepper. Roast the asparagus for about 8 minutes, until just tender and the tips begin to turn brown.
In a small bowl, whisk the lemon juice with the mustard and the remaining ⅓ cup olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
In a large bowl, toss the lettuces with all but 2 tablespoons of the dressing. Arrange the salad on plates and top with the roasted asparagus and cheese curls. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the asparagus and serve.
