This lovely Asian flavored salad is very easy to prepare and make a beautiful presentation. I discovered this recipe in Bon Appétit, 1999.

Preheat oven to 450°F
Place asparagus in medium bowl.
Pour enough cold water over asparagus to cover; let stand 15 minutes.

Spread asparagus in 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan; drizzle with oil.
Roast asparagus until crisp-tender, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes.
Transfer asparagus to platter; cool.
Using sharp knife, cut peel and white pith from tangerines.
Cut between membranes to release segments. Arrange tangerine segments atop asparagus.
