Ingredients
You ‘ll need for the Salmon:
- 2 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Potatoes:
- 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Asparagus:
- 1 lb asparagus, trimmed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper to simplify cleanup.
In a mixing bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on one side of the prepared baking sheet.
Place the potatoes in the oven and roast for 15 minutes to give them a head start before adding the salmon and asparagus.
While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the salmon. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, dried parsley, salt, and pepper. Brush the mixture generously over the salmon fillets.
In another bowl, toss the asparagus with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
After the potatoes have roasted for 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Push the potatoes to one side and place the salmon fillets and asparagus on the empty side of the sheet.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through, the potatoes are golden, and the asparagus is tender.
