Oven-finished salmon seared using its natural fat and roasted asparagus finished with lemon and parsley — a simple, whole-food keto dinner with no added oils.

This recipe is originally for 1 servings. How many are you cooking for today?

Ingredients
  • 1 fillet (170 g) salmon (skin-on, fresh)
  • 7 ozs asparagus, trimmed
  • 1 whole lemon (zest and juice)
  • 1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
1

Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F). Pat salmon dry. Place salmon skin-side down on a rimmed baking sheet.

2

Arrange asparagus alongside the salmon. Scatter sliced garlic around the fish and asparagus.

3

Zest lemon over salmon and asparagus, then squeeze lemon juice over everything. Roast 10–14 minutes, until salmon is opaque and asparagus is tender-crisp. The salmon will release its own fat for cooking.

4

Finish with chopped parsley, slice and serve immediately.
