Roasted Salmon with Asparagus, Onion and Tomato



With such a mild temperature today, a light and healthy dinner comes to mind. Salmon is one of my most favorite fish. This recipe is so fast and simple, the photo took as much time to prepare.

Ingredients: (for 2)

1lb of fresh Salmon
1 bunch of asparagus washed and trimmed
1 medium onion sliced
1/2 container of fresh cherry tomatoes
4 Tablespoons of olive oil
Fresh Thyme
Some nice crusty bread

Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Wash and trim the asparagus, wash the tomatoes and peel and slice the onion. Place all your vegetables in a bowl and drizzle with some of the oil to coat them well. Sprinkle some salt and pepper to them. Coat the top and bottom of the fish with olive oil and salt and pepper the fish on the top and bottom. Place your fish in a small to medium roasting pan making sure there is enough room for the vegetables. Arrange the vegetables around the fish and place on the bottom rack of your pre-heated HOT oven. Cook for about 12 minutes. The fish should still be "pink" in the middle.
Plate the fish and vegetables and serve with a piece of good crusty bread.
Drizzle just a touch of fresh olive oil over the fish and sprinkle with the fresh Thyme.
