Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels, then season both sides with 1/4 tsp sea salt and 1/2 tsp garlic powder.
Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp white miso paste, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tbsp maple syrup until smooth. Brush half the miso mixture evenly over salmon, reserving the rest for later.
Step 3: Place salmon skin-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Toss 12 oz asparagus with 2 tbsp avocado oil, 1/4 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp garlic powder, then arrange around salmon. Scatter 1 lemon slice over everything.
Step 4: Bake for 12-14 minutes until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, basting occasionally with reserved miso glaze. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp fresh dill before serving.
