Simple & Flavorful Roasted Salmon with Asparagus
This recipe is a testament to the fact that healthy food can also be incredibly delicious. It's quick, easy, and bursting with flavor – perfect for a busy weeknight or a special occasion. This dish is naturally gluten-free and easily adaptable to various dietary needs.
Ingredients:
- 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, skin on or off
- 1 pound asparagus, trimmed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lemon, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Toss the asparagus with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread it in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Place the salmon fillets on the same baking sheet, leaving some space between them and the asparagus. Drizzle the salmon with the remaining olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and dill. Top each fillet with a few lemon slices.
- Roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
Cooking Tips:
- For extra flavor, marinate the salmon in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, and dill for 30 minutes before roasting.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet; ensure the asparagus and salmon have enough space to cook evenly.
- Adjust cooking time depending on the thickness of your salmon fillets. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Variations:
- Add other vegetables like cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, or zucchini to the baking sheet.
- Use different herbs like parsley or thyme instead of dill.
- Substitute the lemon slices with lemon juice for a more intense citrus flavor.
