INGREDIENTS

7 oz salmon fillet

1.5 cup asparagus

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

0.5 tsp lemon zest

1 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.

• 2

  Wash the asparagus and trim away the tough, woody ends, then spread the spears out across one half of the prepared sheet pan.

• 3

  Place the salmon fillet on the remaining half of the sheet pan, leaving a bit of space between the fish and the vegetables for even heat circulation.

• 4

  In a small glass bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 5

  Drizzle the lemon-herb mixture over both the salmon and the asparagus, using a pastry brush or your fingers to ensure every inch is well-coated.

• 6

  Slide the pan into the center of the oven and roast for 12 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillet, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

• 7

  Remove from the oven once the asparagus is tender-crisp and serve immediately for a fresh, high-protein dinner.
