1 tsp grated lemon zest
1 small shallot minced

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, zest, and shallot. Incorporate the oil, blending together. Add a dash of salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
Place the asparagus in a single layer on one to two baking sheets, making sure they lay flat. Add a sprinkle of salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil and toss to combine.

Place the asparagus in a serving dish and spoon over the vinaigrette.
