What You Do
Pre-heat oven to 425°F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Place three plates in the work area. One one place mix flour, salt, and pepper. One second plate, add the eggs. On the third plate, add breadcrumbs and lemon zest.
Place a piece of asparagus in the egg wash, next dip it in the flour, next dip it back in the egg wash, and finally roll to coat the asparagus in the breadcrumbs. Place asparagus on the baking sheet. Complete process with remaining asparagus.
Place asparagus in the oven and bake for 13-15 minutes. The coating will be light brown and crispy. While the asparagus cooks, make the sauce.
To make the sauce, combine all sauce ingredients and stir. Set it in the fridge while you wait for the asparagus to finish cooking.
Remove asparagus from the oven and serve with the citrus aioli.
