Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Rinse the asparagus, trim the woody ends, and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper before spreading them on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel.
Season both sides of the salmon with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with a tiny bit of olive oil.
Place the salmon skin-side down and sear for 3-4 minutes until crispy; flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until just cooked through.
In a small bowl, whisk together low-sodium soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated fresh ginger to create the teriyaki glaze.
During the last minute of salmon cooking, spoon the glaze over the fillet in the skillet, allowing it to warm and slightly thicken.
Plate the salmon next to the roasted asparagus and drizzle any remaining glaze over the top.
Garnish with a light sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving.
