The prep work for this recipe is pretty basic too.  Just trim off the ends of your asparagus, chop the yukon gold potatoes into bite-sized pieces, and mince the garlic.

Then, it’s time to make the lemon butter sauce.  In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic, lemon juice, and ground black pepper until combined.  Pour the mixture over your salmon, potatoes, and asparagus, and toss to coat.

Spread the potatoes evenly over a lined baking sheet and roast in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15 minutes.  Then, add the salmon and asparagus to the pan and roast for another 15-20 minutes.  Your sheet pan meal is ready when the salmon flakes easily and the asparagus and potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork.
