Steps

15 mins

1

This is all you'll need.
2

Rinse salmon and cut into quarters. Zest one lemon. I only needed to serve 3 so I cut the salmon into thirds.
3

Coat salmon with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, parsley and lemon zest.
4

Cut 1" off the woody bottoms of your asparagus. Rinse and dry asparagus.
5

Lightly coat asparagus with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
6

Authors Tip: Heat your zested lemon in the microwave for 15 seconds. Then roll it with the palm of your hand. That'll help to fully release its juices without any effort.
7

Place asparagus on a tin foil lined cookie sheet. Separate asparagus as much as you can for even baking. Squeeze your zested lemon half over your asparagus thru a strainer to collect any seeds.
8

Place salmon on a tin foil lined cookie sheet and squeeze your other lemon half on top of it.
9

Bake for 15 minutes at 375°. At 15 check both for doneness. Bake longer if needed based upon the thickness of both your salmon and asparagus and depending upon your individual oven. You'll want a slight crisp to your asparagus and your salmon flaky.
10

Make your Hollandaise Sauce as per manufactures directions. Knoors will call for 1 cup whole milk and 1/4 cup butter.
11

Neatly place asparagus on a plate. Place salmon atop asparagus. Drizzle Hollandaise Sauce over the top of your salmon. Garnish with fresh parsley and sliced lemon wedges. Enjoy!
