Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Arrange 1 lb trimmed asparagus spears on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 tsp sea salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Toss to coat and spread in an even layer.
Step 2: Place 4 salmon fillets on the baking sheet next to the asparagus. Brush each fillet with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and season with 1/2 tsp sea salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill.
Step 3: Top each salmon fillet with 2-3 thin slices of lemon.
Step 4: Bake for 12-15 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork and asparagus is tender-crisp.
Step 5: Serve immediately for a bright, healthy Whole30 seafood dinner.
