Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss 1 lb halved baby potatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/2 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary. Spread potatoes in a single layer and roast for 15 minutes.
  2. Step 2: Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine 2 tbsp olive oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme, 1 tsp lemon zest, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
  3. Step 3: After 15 minutes, push potatoes to one side of the baking sheet. Place 4 salmon fillets skin-side down and 1 lb trimmed asparagus spears on the sheet. Brush salmon and asparagus with the herb-garlic olive oil mixture.
  4. Step 4: Roast everything together for an additional 12-15 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork and asparagus is tender-crisp.
  5. Step 5: Serve the herb-roasted salmon alongside the roasted potatoes and asparagus for an easy, flavorful dinner.
