Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place 1 bunch asparagus (trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces) and 1 cup cherry tomatoes on a large sheet pan; drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper; toss to coat evenly.

- Step 4: After 10 minutes, remove sheet pan from oven, push vegetables to one side, and place salmon fillets skin-side up on the pan.
- Step 5: Return pan to oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
