Peel only the thin rind from two of the tangerines and mince it finely. Then peel all three tangerines, pull off any white membrane, and segment them, removing the pits. Combine with the pecans cooked rice, ginger, celery leaves, scallions, parsley and the salt and pepper. Transfer to a 3-qt. over-to-table dish, cover with aluminum foil. When ready to serve, preheat oven to 450F. and bake, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes.
