Steps:
- Put a large pot of salted water on to boil for the tortellini.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and liberally coat a large, rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray.
- Trim the woody ends from the asparagus spears and peel away a bit of the outer skin toward the bottom to ensure tenderness and even cooking.
- Cut each of the spears into 3 or 4 pieces and toss with a little salt and pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
- Arrange the asparagus on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer and roast until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. (The exact timing will depend on the thickness of the spears.)
- While the asparagus roasts, heat the butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes, until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and continue cooking until the mixture is pale golden in color, about 1 minute longer.
- Deglaze the pan with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits that may have accumulated on the bottom.
- Simmer for 1 to 2 minutes, then reduce the heat to low to keep warm.
- Cook the tortellini until tender, then drain.
- Add the asparagus to the garlic-onion mixture, combine and increase the heat to medium.
- Stir in the lemon juice, zest, and cream. Add the tortellini and toss to combine.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, then transfer to a serving dish.
- Sprinkle with parsley, grind a little black pepper over the top and serve.
