Asparagus with Citrus Dressing

Tender-crisp asparagus doesn't need a lot of extras to make it taste good...but you should try this brightly flavored dressing that highlights the asparagus without overpowering it.

Directions

Heat 2 inches of water in a large skillet over medium-high heat to a boil.  Add the asparagus and cook for 5 minutes or until tender-crisp.  Drain the asparagus well in a colander.  Place the asparagus onto a serving tray.Beat the orange juice, lemon juice, mustard, sugar, black pepper and oil in a small bowl with a fork or whisk.  Drizzle the dressing over the asparagus.  Sprinkle with the egg yolk, if desired.
