Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 tsp garlic powder until smooth to make the glaze.
  2. Step 2: Pat dry 4 (6 oz each) salmon fillets and brush the honey-mustard glaze evenly over the top of each fillet.
  3. Step 3: Preheat grill to medium heat (about 400°F). Trim 1 lb fresh asparagus and toss with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
  4. Step 4: Place asparagus on the cooler side of the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally until tender and slightly charred.
  5. Step 5: Grill salmon fillets skin-side down over direct heat for 4-5 minutes, then carefully flip and grill for an additional 3-4 minutes or until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Step 6: Serve the glazed salmon alongside the grilled asparagus for a balanced and flavorful dish.
