Equipment

  • XL Baking Sheet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Pound Asparagus Diced into 1" pieces
  • 1 Pound Baby Potatoes Quartered into 1" pieces
  • 1 Tablespoon Avocado Oil
  • 1 Teaspoon Salt divided
  • 1 Teaspoon Pepper divided
  • 1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder divided
  • 1 Teaspoon Paprika divided
  • 4 Salmon Fillets
  • ¼ Cup Butter Melted
  • 3-4 Cloves Fresh Garlic Minced
  • 1 Bunch Fresh Parsley Minced
  • 1 Lemon Sliced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400 F and set your rack to the middle position.
  • Remove around 1-2" from the bottom of your asparagus and discard. Then dice your asparagus into 1" pieces. Quarter your baby potatoes into 1" pieces. Slice your lemon.
  • Add your diced baby potatoes, diced asparagus, avocado oil and and ¾ teaspoon of each spice to your XL baking sheet and toss until the seasonings and oil are evenly distributed on your vegetables. Place in the oven to bake for about 15 minutes.
  • While your vegetables are baking, add your melted butter, minced garlic cloves, and minced parsley into a small bowl and mix.
  • Remove your pan from the oven, and set your pan down on a heat protected surface. Use a utensil to push the vegetables to the sides of your baking dish to create a clean center in the middle where you will add in your salmon fillets.
  • Once you have added your salmon fillets, evenly season your salmon with ¼ teaspoon of salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Spoon your herb butter mixture on top of the salmon fillets and evenly distribute across the top surface of your salmon using a basting brush or spoon. Add lemon slices on top and bake for another 11-12 minutes.
  • Remove your salmon from the oven, give your lemon slices a squeeze over the salmon fillets and serve!
  • Hint: Make sure not to be extra careful not to burn yourself when you remove the hot baking pan from the oven to add in the salmon fillets.
