It is also a healthy choice, as asparagus is an excellent source of vitamins K, A, and C, as well as fiber. With just a few simple steps, you can have a delicious and nutritious dish that will impress your family and friends. Make sure the asparagus spears are thick and uniform in size, so that they cook evenly. Toss the asparagus in the marinade until it is well coated.

Stir the asparagus halfway through roasting to ensure that it cooks evenly and add the goat and the parsley.
