Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Snap the woody ends off the asparagus and place the spears on the baking sheet.
Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil and sprinkle with minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes until tender and slightly browned.
While the vegetables roast, pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the ghee in a stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Carefully place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact.
Sear the salmon for 5 minutes without moving it, then flip and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the center is just opaque.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and finish with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of chopped parsley.
