Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Line a baking sheet with baking paper.
2
In a small bowl, mix melted butter, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and thyme.
3
Place the salmon fillets in the center of the baking sheet. Arrange the asparagus and cherry tomatoes around it.
4
Using a brush, evenly coat the salmon and vegetables with the prepared marinade. Season everything with salt and pepper.
5
Place lemon slices on top of the salmon and among the vegetables for extra flavor and juiciness.
6
Bake for 12–15 minutes (depending on the thickness of the fillet), until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the asparagus is tender but still firm.
7
Before serving, sprinkle the dish with fresh dill or parsley.
