Roasted Asparagus Salad With Citrus Dressing
- 2 lbs asparagus, trimmed (about 2 bunches)
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes (red or mixed colors)
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
- fresh ground pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 bunches watercress, tough stems removed (about 4 cups lightly packed)
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
- Preheat oven to 450u0b0F
- Place asparagus in a large bowl. Add tomatoes and oil and toss to coat. Spread in a heavy roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet, spooning the tomatoes between and on top of the asparagus. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and add a generous grinding of pepper. Roast until the asparagus is crisp-tender and the tomatoes are warmed and slightly crinkled, about 15 minutes. Set aside until ready to serve.
- Whisk lemon juice, orange juice, honey, mustard and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl until blended. Reserve half of the dressing in a small bowl.
- Add watercress to the medium bowl; toss to coat. Spread the watercress on a platter. Arrange the roasted asparagus on the watercress and top with tomatoes. Drizzle the reserved dressing over the asparagus and tomatoes; sprinkle with dill. Serve warm or at room temperature.
