I used no sodium soy sauce (homemade). I let the asparagus in the marinade overnight. I like the taste of sesame oil in it. Thanks Teresa. This is great. Made for Potluck tag

Good and easy to make. I followed the recipe exactly as written. This was a nice, different way for me to make asparagus.

Wonderfully, flavorful side dish for grilled chicken or a Chinese Roasted Chicken. I can also see adding it into Egg Foo Young or and Asian Salad. I will definitely be making this again.
