Ingredients

1

lb fresh asparagus spears

1

teaspoon canola oil

1

medium red, yellow or orange bell pepper, cut into 3/4-inch pieces

2

cloves garlic, finely chopped

1

tablespoon orange juice

1

tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce

1/2

teaspoon ground ginger

Preparation

Break off tough ends of asparagus as far down as stalks snap easily. Wash asparagus; cut into 1-inch pieces.

In 10-inch nonstick skillet or wok, heat oil over medium heat. Add asparagus, bell pepper and garlic; cook 3 to 4 minutes or until crisp-tender, stirring constantly.

In small bowl, mix orange juice, soy sauce and ginger until blended; stir into asparagus mixture. Cook and stir 15 to 30 seconds or until vegetables are coated.
