This Greek-inspired one-pan meal is simple to make and perfect for busy weeknights. Guests will love this too! Serve with a side of rice, if desired. I prefer to use thick center-cut pieces of salmon, as they tend to remain more moist.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 ½ pounds salmon fillet

  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt

  • 1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 2 teaspoons Greek seasoning

  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese

  • 2 tablespoons pitted and chopped Kalamata olives

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Cut salmon into 4 even pieces and place in the middle of the prepared sheet pan. Sprinkle with garlic salt. Scatter asparagus around salmon.

  3. Stir together olive oil, lemon juice, and Greek seasoning in a small bowl. Combine feta cheese and olives in a second bowl.

  4. Brush half the oil mixture over salmon and drizzle the remainder over the asparagus.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until salmon easily flakes with a fork, 12 to 15 minutes, depending on thickness of the salmon. Sprinkle salmon with feta mixture during the last 5 minutes of cooking.

Cook's Notes:

I like to use the Greek Spice Rub from this site.

I used tomato and basil flavored feta.
