Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger, 2 tablespoons honey, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice until combined.
  2. Step 2: Place 4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each) in a shallow dish and pour half the soy-ginger glaze over them, reserving the remainder. Marinate in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Trim 1 bunch (about 1 pound) asparagus spears by snapping off woody ends, then toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Step 4: Preheat grill to medium heat (about 375°F). Place asparagus on the grill perpendicular to grates and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally until tender and slightly charred.
  5. Step 5: While asparagus grills, place salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Brush with remaining glaze and cook for 5-6 minutes, then carefully flip and cook another 4-5 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Step 6: Remove salmon and asparagus from grill. Drizzle asparagus with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and serve alongside the salmon.
