Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears with half of the sesame oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 10-12 minutes until tender yet firm.
In a small bowl, whisk together the tamari, honey, minced fresh ginger, and minced garlic to create the glaze.
Heat the remaining sesame oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the salmon with a tiny pinch of salt and sear it skin-side up for 4 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms.
Flip the salmon and pour the glaze into the pan, allowing it to bubble and thicken for 3-4 minutes while you spoon it over the fish.
Plate the salmon immediately alongside the roasted asparagus, drizzling any remaining pan glaze over the top.
