Ingredients
  

For the Honey Mustard Glaze:

1/4 cup honey

3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

For the Salmon:

4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each, skin-on preferred)

1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)

For the Veggies:

1 cup asparagus, trimmed

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 bell pepper (any color), sliced

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Fresh herbs (like parsley or dill) for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Glaze: In a mixing bowl, combine honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Whisk until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed and the glaze is smooth.

    Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour half of the honey mustard glaze over them. Let the salmon marinate for 15-20 minutes at room temperature, turning occasionally to ensure even coverage.

      Prep the Veggies: While the salmon is marinating, toss the asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and bell pepper in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper until well coated.

        Cook the Salmon: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Once hot, add the marinated salmon fillets skin-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then carefully flip and brush the top with some of the remaining honey mustard glaze. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and has a nice glaze. (Cooking time may vary based on the thickness of the fillets.)

          Roast the Veggies: While the salmon cooks, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the prepared veggies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for about 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through cooking.

            Plate and Serve: Place the salmon fillets on a serving platter alongside the roasted veggies. Drizzle any remaining honey mustard glaze over the top. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve with lemon wedges for an extra zing.
