You always told me you didn’t like salmon."
“What are you talking about?

I used to make this all the time.”
“You’ve never made it in this house!…”
and so on and so on.

Turns out my mother’s preferred method of cooking any fish is to pan-fry it, coated with cornmeal.
Just a theory of course, I didn’t stick around to see the outcome of this particular chat…
This salmon recipe comes together quickly in the oven, all in one sheet pan or roasting pan.

You roast the potatoes first because they take much longer than the fish and asparagus to cook.
Super easy with wonderful flavors.
Perfect for a midweek dinner!

Simple Tip!
For even easier cleanup, line the sheet pan with parchment paper before adding the potatoes and olive oil.
Turn the potatoes over and roast another 10 minutes until browned on top.

Remove the roasting pan from the oven.
Add the asparagus mixture to the potatoes and stir to combine.
Push the vegetables to the side of the dish to make room for the salmon.

If you are using fillets, put them skin side down.
Salt the salmon well and return the baking dish to the oven.
Roast the salmon and asparagus for 10 minutes, or until the fish is just cooked through.

Garnish with fresh dill and lemon wedges.
