Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Toss trimmed asparagus with 1 tablespoon olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Place salmon fillets on the same baking sheet, nestled among asparagus. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using.
Sprinkle chopped dill and parsley over salmon and asparagus. Top each fillet with 2–3 lemon slices.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and asparagus is tender-crisp.
Remove from oven, squeeze fresh lemon juice over everything, and serve immediately.
