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)
- Olive oil for drizzling (approximately 1 tbsp)
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the 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 the Salmon: Drizzle the olive oil over the salmon fillets, making sure each is coated evenly. Then, rub the everything bagel seasoning over the top of each fillet to infuse them with bold flavor.
- Arrange the Asparagus: Place the asparagus around the salmon fillets on the baking sheet. Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil and sprinkle with salt to season.
- Bake the Dish: Bake the salmon and asparagus in the oven for 12-15 minutes. Cook until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
- Finish and Serve: Once out of the oven, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the salmon and asparagus to add brightness and a fresh citrusy note before serving.
Notes
- For even cooking, try to choose salmon fillets of uniform thickness.
- Everything bagel seasoning typically includes sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried onion, garlic, and salt—feel free to adjust seasoning quantity based on your preference.
- If you prefer a crispier asparagus, consider broiling for an additional 1-2 minutes at the end of cooking.
- Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- You can substitute asparagus with green beans or broccoli for a different vegetable option.
