Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss 1 lb trimmed fresh asparagus spears with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Spread asparagus in an even layer on one side of the sheet.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 1 tsp lemon zest, 2 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  3. Step 3: Place 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each) skin-side down on the empty side of the baking sheet. Brush each fillet generously with the lemon-rosemary mixture.
  4. Step 4: Roast salmon and asparagus in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the asparagus is tender but still crisp.
  5. Step 5: Remove from oven and let rest for 2 minutes before serving. Spoon any pan juices over the salmon and asparagus for extra flavor.
