Asparagus and Salmon

LOW SODIUM SALMON and ASPARAGUS

An incredibly tasty and healthy meal that is so quick to prepare and not many dishes to clean up.

If you don’t have asparagus available try this recipe with Brussels Sprouts, that’s a winning combination as well.

Ingredients

1-pound Wild Alaskan salmon fillet, cut into 4 portions 

1-pound fresh asparagus, trimmed

½ teaspoon ground pepper

2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh oregano

3 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

½ tablespoon grated garlic

1 teaspoon grated lemon zest

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a large rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.

Place salmon on one side of the prepared baking sheet and asparagus on the other. Sprinkle the salmon and asparagus with the pepper.

Heat butter, oil, garlic, lemon zest and lemon juice in a small skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted.

Drizzle the butter mixture over the salmon and asparagus.

Bake until the salmon is cooked through and the asparagus is just tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
