Herb-Baked Salmon with Roasted Asparagus
Salmon fillet oven-baked with a vibrant herb crust, served alongside tender roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a bright and savory lunch.
INGREDIENTS
10 oz salmon fillet
1 cup asparagus spears
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 whole lemon
1 tbsp fresh dill
1 tbsp fresh parsley
1 clove garlic
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the salmon fillet and trimmed asparagus spears on a large sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
Drizzle the salmon and asparagus with the extra virgin olive oil, then season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Mince the garlic clove, fresh dill, and fresh parsley; sprinkle half of this herb mixture over the salmon and asparagus.
Slice half of the lemon into thin rounds and place them on top of the salmon; squeeze the juice from the remaining half into a small bowl.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the asparagus is tender and slightly charred.
In the small bowl with the lemon juice, whisk together the plain Greek yogurt and the remaining half of the fresh herb mixture.
Serve the warm salmon and roasted asparagus over the cooked quinoa, finishing with a dollop of the herbed yogurt sauce.
