Really good!! The texture of the asparagus was perfect. My 3year old even liked it. Only gave it four stars b/c it did not have much orange flavor with juice alone. Will add the zest next time, should not be optional. Went great with my baja chicken!!!

I thought this was pretty good but it could use some more spices. I opted out of the zest since my husband generally does not prefer the texture, however, if I make this again I will include it. There was not enough orange flavor to suit me.

These were really good as written. The only change I made was to use tangerine juice and zest. I also threw in some fresh tangerine slices during the last minute which was a hit.

I was looking for a side to have with my baja chicken and this was even better than it sounds. I followed the directions exactly and it was really easy to pull together and totally yummy!

I thought this was good. As another reviewer questioned...how much is a bunch? I know at the supermarket the asparagus is normally sold in bunches, but I don't know if they are "bunched" in any uniform way. Anyway, I did cut the recipe down to only two servings but did add a little extra orange juice and zest. The orange adds a nice tangy zip to it. The sauce never thickened up so I just poured it over and enjoyed.

Not being sure how much a "bunch" would be (at my store it's sold in 1-pound bundles) I took a pound bundle to be a "bunch". It wasn't. One pound seems to me to be approximately 3 bunches, because I divided the servings down to 3 and thought I'd have liked to have tripled the sauce :-) This was good, but not great. I prefer the admittedly less healthy recipes using butter and/or Parmesan. Thanks for the recipe though, it *was* good :)
