Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 895 g before cooking, which is about 450 g per serving.

Steps

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200 °C) (200°C (400 °F)). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

  2. Place the salmon fillets in the center of the baking sheet and arrange the trimmed asparagus spears around them in a single layer.

  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, minced garlic, and lemon juice until well combined.

  4. Drizzle the garlic butter mixture evenly over the salmon fillets and the asparagus.

  5. Season everything generously with salt and black pepper to taste.

  6. Top the salmon fillets with lemon slices.

  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the asparagus is tender-crisp.

  8. Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

For thicker salmon fillets, you may need to add 2-3 minutes to the cooking time. If you prefer your asparagus very soft, you can start roasting it 5 minutes before adding the salmon to the pan.
