Miso Glazed Salmon with Asparagus

Ingredients

• 4 6 oz each Salmon fillets
• 2 tablespoons White miso paste
• 1 tablespoon Mirin
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce (tamari for gluten-free)
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 1 bunch Asparagus
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil

Instructions

1. 1Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. 2In a small bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons of white miso paste, 1 tablespoon of mirin, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free), and 1 teaspoon of sugar. Whisk these ingredients together until they form a smooth glaze.
3. 3Arrange the 4 salmon fillets on a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper.
4. 4Generously brush the miso glaze over the top of each of the 4 salmon fillets.
5. 5Trim the tough ends off the 1 bunch of asparagus. In a separate bowl, toss the asparagus with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil until lightly coated. Arrange the oiled asparagus on the same baking sheet alongside the salmon.
6. 6Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). The asparagus should be tender and slightly crisp.
