For the Vinaigrette
-
Zest one orange into a bowl, then in a separate bowl juice both oranges. Pour juice into a small saucepan. Over medium heat, boil the juice, until reduced and concentrated to about three tablespoons.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the shallot and vinegar. Set aside five minutes.
-
Add Dijon mustard, orange zest, and orange juice. Slowly whisk in the oil. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
For the Asparagus
-
Bring a sauté pan full of water to boil. Salt it, then add the asparagus and cook until tender, about three to four minutes. Drain, and immediately rinse under ice-cold water to stop additional cooking and retain the bright green color.
-
Pat dry with paper towels and transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and pecans.
