Directions
Preheat the oven to 450℉ (230℃).
Place asparagus, mushrooms, and bell pepper onto a large rimmed baking sheet.
Sprinkle garlic and ginger on top of the vegetables, then drizzle soy sauce and olive oil over the veggies, and freshly ground some black pepper on top.
Toss until evenly coated and well combined.
Roast in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until the asparagus and bell peppers are tender but still crisp.
Remove from the oven, then season with more soy sauce and black pepper if needed.
Drizzle the rice vinegar, sesame oil, and sesame seeds all over the veggies.
Sprinkle the cilantro and scallions, then toss to combine.
Serve warm.
