Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C) and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Mince the garlic clove and sprinkle it over the asparagus, then drizzle with 0.25 tbsp of olive oil and half of the salt and pepper.
Toss the asparagus to coat evenly and roast in the oven for 12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with the remaining salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining 0.25 tbsp of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Carefully place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 5 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes until the flesh is opaque.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice over the entire dish.
