Transfer the asparagus to a serving platter, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese to finish them off. If desired, serve with lemon wedges.<\/p>\n<h2>Recipe Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Make air-fryer asparagus vegan-friendly:<\/strong> You can make this air-fryer asparagus recipe more vegan-friendly by omitting the mayonnaise and Parmesan cheese for a vegan mayonnaise (or other plant-based spread) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-vegan-cheese-brands\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-vegan-cheese-brands\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">vegan cheese<\/a> like Violife Parmesan.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wrap the spears in bacon:<\/strong> For a beautiful presentation and an extra crispy crunch, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/air-fryer-bacon-wrapped-asparagus\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/air-fryer-bacon-wrapped-asparagus\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">air-fryer bacon-wrapped asparagus<\/a> is the move. Wrap the asparagus in strips of bacon before placing in the air fryer. You can skip the lemon zest if you don&#8217;t want to mix the citrusy flavor with savory bacon.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Drizzle the asparagus with hollandaise:<\/strong> Asparagus for breakfast will totally change your perception of this green crunchy vegetable. Pair it with poached eggs and hollandaise sauce over a toasted English muffin.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Air-Fryer Asparagus<\/h2>\n<p>Airy-fryer asparagus can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days. When it&#8217;s time to reheat the asparagus, you can warm it in the air fryer again.<\/p>\n<h2>Air-Fryer Asparagus Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1924396 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Air-Fryer-Asparagus-Tips_THVS23_246501_MR_10_05_23_AirFryerLemonParmesanAsparagus_SS-Edit-2.jpg?fit=700%2C466\" alt=\"Air Fryer Asparagus Tips Thvs23 246501 Mr 10 05 23 Airfryerlemonparmesanasparagus\" width=\"700\" height=\"466\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Why isn&#8217;t my asparagus crispy?<\/h3>\n<p>Limp asparagus is a sign of overcooking. Because spears vary in size, it&#8217;s best to figure out how many minutes to air fry the spears based on their thickness. The thinner the spear, the fewer minutes it should cook. For a thicker spear, you might have to air-fry for longer than six minutes.<\/p>\n<h3>How much asparagus do I need to trim off?<\/h3>\n<p>The woody ends are the only part that should be trimmed off. Rather than snapping the bottoms off and risking wasting much of the fresh green spear, simply cut the spears about two inches from the bottom or wherever they begin to lose their color.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Air-fryer asparagus turns a favorite side dish into a quick and flavor-rich recipe that cooks in mere
