Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound fresh asparagus, ends trimmed, each stalk cut diagonally into thirds
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup finely diced red bell pepper
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon oriental sesame oil
2 teaspoons sesame seeds, toasted

  • Cook asparagus in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain. Rinse asparagus under cold water. Drain well. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Wrap in paper towels and chill.)
  • Heat vegetable oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and stir 1 minute. Add asparagus and sauté until heated through, about 2 minutes. Add soy sauce and sesame oil; toss until asparagus and bell pepper are coated, about 1 minute. Transfer to platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

This recipe is a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and ginger next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the asparagus was way too salty. I had to rinse it off before I could eat it.
