Preheat oven to 450 F°. Wash asparagus spears and snap off the tough ends. Lay the spears in a single layer on a cookie sheet with sides. Drizzle small amount of olive oil over them (no more than 1 tablespoon for a panful) and shake salt/pepper over them. Mix spears up with your hands so oil/salt is well distributed and lay the spears flat again.
Cook for 6-10 minutes (depends on thickness). How much to cook depends on how much you can get and how much you like asparagus.
