2 Salmon fillets (4 to 5 oz. ea.)--wild caught  is considered to be the healthiest

Pour a tspn to a tspn and a half of extra virgin olive oil on each fillet.

Sprinkle a little sea salt and pepper on each fillet to taste.

Bake at 425 degrees for 19 minutes. (The general rule for fish is to bake 10 minutes per 1 inch of thickness)

While fish is baking, get a large sautee pan and heat to medium heat.  Add 1 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil to pan.

Add bunch of asparagus and squeeze half of a lemon over the top.

Be sure to use tongs to move the asparagus around to keep the asparagus cooking on all sides and to keep it from burning.

After about 10 minutes, squeeze the other lemon half over the top of the asparagus and serve
