Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
Trim the woody ends off the 1 bunch asparagus and place on the sheet pan. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper, toss to coat.
Step 3
Pat the 4 salmon fillets dry and place them on the sheet pan among the asparagus. Drizzle with remaining 2 tbsp olive oil, sprinkle with remaining 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper.
Step 4
Thinly slice the 2 garlic cloves and scatter over the salmon and asparagus. Cut the 1 lemon into wedges and place them on the pan.
Step 5
Roast for 12-15 minutes, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
Step 6
Serve hot, with lemon wedges squeezed over the top.
