Ingredients
  

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

1 lb asparagus, trimmed

1 lb baby potatoes, halved

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (optional for garnish)

Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prep the Potatoes: In a mixing bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until well coated.

      Bake Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on one side of the prepared sheet pan. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

        Prepare Salmon and Asparagus: While the potatoes are baking, in another bowl, combine the salmon fillets with the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss the asparagus in any leftover olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

          Add Salmon and Asparagus: After the potatoes have baked for 15 minutes, remove the sheet pan from the oven. Push the potatoes to one side of the pan and place the salmon fillets and asparagus next to them in a single layer.

            Return to Oven: Bake everything together for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through (internal temperature of 145°F) and the asparagus is bright green and tender.

              Garnish and Serve: Remove the sheet pan from the oven. If desired, sprinkle fresh dill over the salmon for added flavor and garnish. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
