Prep the Oven and Asparagus: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse the asparagus under cold water and trim the woody ends—usually about an inch.
Assemble the Dish: Arrange the trimmed asparagus in a baking dish. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and minced garlic. Drizzle this mixture over the asparagus, tossing gently to ensure every spear is coated.
Season and Add Cream: Sprinkle the asparagus with salt and pepper to taste. Pour the heavy cream over the top to add a luscious, creamy base.
Add the Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella generously over the asparagus. Make sure it’s evenly distributed for that gooey, cheesy finish.
Roast to Perfection: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender, the cream is bubbling, and the cheese is golden and melty.
Garnish with Pistachios: Once out of the oven, sprinkle the roasted asparagus with crushed pistachios for a touch of crunch and a pop of flavor. Serve immediately and watch it disappear!
