  • Total Time: 23 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 6-oz. each salmon filets, preferably wild-caught Alaskan
  • 3 T. fresh orange juice
  • 2 t. honey
  • 3 T. extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 T. balsamic vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1 1/2 lb. asparagus, tough end removed
  • Sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat. Place the salmon filets skin-side down in the center of the baking sheet and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the orange juice, honey, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and garlic. Generously season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and brush over the salmon.
  • Add the asparagus to the bowl with the orange juice mixture and gently toss to combine. Season with additional salt and black pepper, to taste.
  • Arrange asparagus around the salmon filets in a single layer and place the sheet pan in the pre-heated oven.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes, or just until the salmon is flaky and the asparagus develops a bit of color, being careful not to overcook the salmon.

 

Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy!
