Ingredients

4 servings

2 medium mandarin oranges, (divided)
2 medium lemons, (divided)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried tarragon or thyme
1 pound asparagus spears, (trimmed (see tips below))
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, (to taste)

Steps

Preheat the oven to 400℉. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper (or use a nonstick baking sheet).
Zest one orange and one lemon and place the zest in a small bowl. Juice the zested orange and lemon and add the juice to the zest. Whisk in the oil, garlic and tarragon or thyme. Slice the remaining orange and lemon.
Place the trimmed asparagus on the baking sheet. Top with orange and lemon slices. Drizzle with the juice mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake 12 to 15 minutes, until asparagus is tender. Remove asparagus to a serving platter and drizzle some of the pan juices on top.
