Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Peel and cube the sweet potato into roughly equal pieces. Toss the cubes with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a light drizzle of olive oil.
Spread the sweet potato cubes on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
While the sweet potato is roasting, trim the asparagus ends and toss with a pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Season the salmon fillet with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of garlic powder.
Place the salmon in the skillet, skin side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the inside reaches your desired doneness.
In the last 5 minutes of the sweet potato’s roasting time, add the asparagus to the baking sheet to roast alongside, ensuring they are evenly spread out.
Once everything is cooked, plate the seared salmon with a side of roasted sweet potato cubes and asparagus. Enjoy your nutritious and flavorful dinner.
