Ingredients
Scale
- 4 salmon fillets
- 1 pound asparagus spears
- 2 pounds baby potatoes, halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup shredded cheese (your choice)
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Coat each salmon fillet in the spice mixture thoroughly.
- Trim the ends off the asparagus spears. In a separate bowl, mix shredded cheese with cream cheese until well combined. Spread this mixture over the asparagus.
- In another bowl, toss halved baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, rosemary, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Spread them out on another section of your baking sheet.
- Place both trays in the preheated oven. Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The asparagus should be tender yet crisp while potatoes are golden brown.
- Once baked, remove everything from the oven. Serve your Spiced Salmon alongside cheesy asparagus and garlic herb potatoes for a complete meal.
