Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place asparagus on a parchment-lined baking sheet, drizzle with 1/2 tbsp olive oil, and season with 1/8 tsp salt and 1/16 tsp pepper. Roast for 12-14 minutes until tender-crisp and edges are slightly browned.
  2. Step 2: Pat salmon dry and season with remaining salt, pepper, and 1/2 tsp lemon zest. Place salmon on a separate baking sheet, top with lemon slices, and dot with remaining olive oil. Bake for 12-14 minutes until flaky and opaque throughout.
  3. Step 3: Arrange roasted asparagus on plates, top with salmon, and garnish with fresh dill and avocado slices. Squeeze remaining lemon juice over the dish just before serving.
