Ingredients
Scale
Salmon
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 2 tbsp everything bagel seasoning
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 lemon, sliced
Vegetables
- 1 bunch asparagus (about 1 lb)
- Olive oil (for drizzling on asparagus)
- Salt (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Prepare Salmon: Drizzle the olive oil over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well coated. Rub the everything bagel seasoning evenly onto each fillet to infuse them with savory flavors.
- Arrange Asparagus: Spread the asparagus around the salmon on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil and sprinkle with salt according to your preference.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes. The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
- Finish and Serve: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the salmon and asparagus for a bright, tangy finish. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Make sure not to overcook the salmon to keep it moist and tender.
- Feel free to substitute asparagus with other vegetables like green beans or broccoli.
- Everything bagel seasoning can be found in most grocery stores or made at home by mixing sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried onion, garlic, and salt.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the seasoning mix.
- Use fresh lemon for the best flavor; bottled lemon juice will not provide the same brightness.
