Keto Salmon with Asparagus and Lemon-Garlic Sauce
A healthy and flavorful keto lunch featuring baked salmon with asparagus, topped with a dairy-free lemon-garlic sauce.
Ingredients
- 2 6 oz Salmon Fillets
- 1 lb Asparagus
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional Yeast
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- 2Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the 1 lb of asparagus on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the asparagus with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle the asparagus with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- 3Place the 2 6 oz salmon fillets on the same baking sheet alongside the asparagus. Drizzle the salmon fillets with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle the salmon fillets with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- 4Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes. The salmon is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). The asparagus should be tender-crisp.
- 5While the salmon and asparagus are baking, prepare the lemon-garlic sauce. In a small bowl, mince the 2 cloves of garlic. Add the minced garlic to the bowl with the 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and the 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast. Whisk these ingredients together until well combined.
- 6Once the salmon and asparagus are finished baking, carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven. Drizzle the prepared lemon-garlic sauce over the salmon fillets and the asparagus before serving.
