Ingredients
  

  • 24 oz. salmon filets 4 filets cut into 6 ounces each, preferably wild-caught Alaskan
  • 3 Tablespoons fresh orange juice
  • 2 Teaspoons honey
  • 3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves finely minced
  • 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 a piece of parchment paper or a Silpat® 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 sheet pan in 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 to not overcook the salmon.
  • Remove from oven and serve immediately. Enjoy!
