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 them on the baking sheet with the olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
Roast the asparagus for 10-12 minutes until tender but still vibrant green.
While the asparagus roasts, whisk together the tamari, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a small bowl to create the glaze.
Season the salmon fillet lightly with salt and sear in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes on the first side.
Flip the salmon, pour the glaze into the pan, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, spooning the thickening sauce over the fish until it is glossy and cooked through.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus, drizzling any remaining glaze from the pan over the top.
Garnish with sesame seeds and serve immediately.
