Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange 1 lb trimmed asparagus spears in a single layer. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper; toss to coat evenly.
  2. Step 2: Place 4 salmon fillets, skin-side down, on the other side of the baking sheet. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 1/4 cup fresh orange juice, 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, and 3 minced garlic cloves until combined.
  3. Step 3: Brush the honey-citrus glaze generously over the top of the salmon fillets. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes over the fish for a subtle heat.
  4. Step 4: Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork and asparagus is tender crisp.
  5. Step 5: Remove from oven and let rest for 2 minutes before serving the glazed salmon alongside roasted asparagus.
