Ingredients

• 4 salmon fillets

• 1 pound asparagus - ends trimmed

• 2 pounds baby red or gold potatoes - quartered

• 3 tablespoons olive oil

• salt and pepper to taste

• 2 teaspoons Italian herb blend - see note

• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

• 2 tablespoons butter - melted

• 2 tablespoons honey

• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

• ½ teaspoon Italian herb blend

• ½ lemon - thinly sliced

Directions

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Toss potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt and pepper to taste, garlic powder, and 2 teaspoons Italian herb blend. Arrange on a large sheet pan and bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes. 

•  Arrange salmon fillets and asparagus on the sheet pan. Whisk together melted butter, honey, dijon mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon remaining Italian herb blend. Brush onto salmon fillets. 

• Drizzle asparagus with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, season with salt and pepper to taste, and place lemon slices between the asparagus spears. 

• Bake for 15 minutes until asparagus and potatoes are fork-tender and salmon is cooked through. Serve immediately. 

Note:

For DIY Italian herb blend stir together equal parts dried thyme, parsley, oregano, and basil.

Optional additions: Sometimes I add 1/4 cup parmesan cheese to the potatoes or asparagus or 1 tablespoon dried Ranch seasoning to the potatoes.
