Ingredients

For the Asparagus Fries:

1 bunch asparagus washed and trimmed
2 egg whites beaten lightly
½ cup flour
½ cup panko bread crumbs
salt and pepper to taste
4 Tablespoons parmesan cheese grated
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoons olive oil

For the Aioli Sauce

¾ cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons garlic minced
2 ½ tablespoons lemon juice
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

For the Asparagus:

Brush your baking pan lighting with olive oil to prepare it, and set it aside.
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
Place the lightly beaten egg whites in a shallow dish.
In another bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients.
Roll each asparagus spear in enough egg whites to coat the entire stalk and then place it directly into the next bowl of dry panko mixture and roll the spear until it’s completely covered with the panko mixture.
Place each spear your prepared baking dish.
Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the asparagus is crispy on the outside but still slightly firm on the inside. It might need a little more time depending on the size of the asparagus spear.

For the Aioli

Mix mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl or in the blender. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving to allow all the ingredients to marry the flavors together.
Serve with the Baked Asparagus Fries or any anything else you feel like dipping! So yummy!
