Ingredients
Scale
Salmon and Seasoning
- 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)
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (for asparagus)
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make clean-up easier.
- Prepare Salmon: Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the salmon fillets, then generously rub the everything bagel seasoning on each fillet to ensure full flavor coverage.
- Arrange Asparagus: Place the asparagus bunch around the salmon fillets on the baking sheet. Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil and sprinkle with salt to taste for added flavor.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork, indicating it is cooked through.
- Serve with Lemon: Just before serving, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the salmon and asparagus to add brightness and a fresh citrus note.
Notes
- Use fresh salmon fillets for best texture and flavor; wild-caught is preferable.
- Adjust the amount of everything bagel seasoning to your taste if you prefer a milder or stronger flavor.
- Ensure even spacing on the sheet pan to allow for even cooking.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- For a gluten-free option, verify that your everything bagel seasoning does not contain gluten-containing ingredients.
