Quickly roasted salmon and asparagus, served on baby greens with mustard vinaigrette. The perfect meal for spring! |
(Updated April 2012 with step-by-step instructions and better photos) Usually when I'm updating an old recipe that needs new photos I try hard not to change much about the recipe in case people have it bookmarked, but when I looked at this recipe for a warm salmon and asparagus salad, the original method of marinating the salmon and then grilling it while you roasted the asparagus seemed so labor-intensive compared to how I would make it now. This time I simply roasted the asparagus a few minutes, added the salmon that I'd rubbed with my favorite Szeged Fish Rub, and the result was a wonderful salmon and asparagus salad like you might get at a fine restaurant. I'll include both sets of directions in the recipe, but the simple method of roasting both asparagus and salmon gets my vote!
