Sheetpan Lemon Dill Salmon and Asparagus– 5 Ingredients, one sheetpan, easiest weeknight dinner of ALL time.
This Sheetpan Lemon Dill Salmon and Asparagus is incredibly flavorful and perfect for busy weeknights. It’s a no fuss dinner that’s also super healthy, delicious, and quick to throw together.
Salmon and asparagus has always been a go-to weeknight dinner for us because it’s healthy but also really easy and easy to make. I’m all about the hands off meals and this one is exactly that. Throw it all onto a Sheetpan and call it a night!
We love easy dinner idea and this one is a family favorite!
Add your salmon and asparagus to a parchment paper or foil lined baking sheet. Drizzle everything with olive oil, sea salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Then add lemon zest and juice to the salmon along with a bunch of fresh dill. Now just pop it in the oven to bake!
We typically have a side salad or cauliflower rice to go with it, but of course that is optional. My favorite way to cook cauliflower rice is to sauté it in a nonstick skillet (these are my favorites) with a little bit of olive oil + ghee with salt and lots of freshly cracked pepper. Make sure not to cook it too long, however, as it can get mushy.
