Preheat your oven to 400°F. Season the salmon fillet and the trimmed asparagus with the salt and black pepper.
In an oven-proof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds. Cook without moving it until the skin is crisp, about 4 minutes.
Arrange the asparagus in the pan around the salmon. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the salmon flakes easily and the asparagus is tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. Done when flakes easily, 145°F.
Place the salmon and asparagus on a plate. Serve immediately with the lemon wedges for squeezing over the fish.
