Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a bowl, toss the asparagus with half the olive oil and half the salt. Season the salmon fillet with the remaining salt and the black pepper.
Heat the remaining oil in a 12-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon in the skillet presentation-side down. Sear for 3 minutes until a golden crust forms and the fish releases easily from the pan.
Flip the salmon fillet. Add the asparagus to the skillet around the fish. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 6 to 8 minutes for a 1-inch-thick fillet, until the salmon flakes easily and the asparagus is tender. Done when flakes easily, 145°F.
Transfer the salmon and asparagus to a plate. Squeeze the lemon wedges over both the fish and the vegetables just before serving.
