  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 minced garlic clove, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Brush the mixture over 4 salmon fillets.
  3. Step 3: Place the salmon on the baking sheet and roast for 12-15 minutes until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily.
  4. Step 4: In the same oven, toss 12 asparagus spears with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Roast for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
  5. Step 5: Serve the salmon alongside the asparagus, garnished with 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill and a drizzle of lemon juice from the zested lemon.
