Quick and Healthy Dinner – Salmon Filet with Sweet Potatoes and Asparagus

 

Ingredients
  • 4 oz Salmon Filet
  • 1/2 Sweet Potato
  • 10 Spears of Asparagus
  • 2 tsps Dijon Mustard
  • 1 Lemon
  • Ground Pepper
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and prepare with cooking spray.
Squeeze half of a lemon over the raw salmon filet and let it marinate while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
Wash and trim your asparagus spears and slice the sweet potato into cubes.
Place the salmon filet in the middle of your baking sheet and the vegetables around the edges. Grind fresh black pepper on the salmon and vegetables. Spread 1 tsp of Dijon mustard on top of the salmon filet and then press the cracker or pretzel crumbs into the mustard.
Bake for 15 minutes, flipping the sweet potatoes and asparagus half way through cooking.
While baking, combine the remaining 1 tsp of Dijon mustard and the juice from the other half of the lemon with some black pepper to create a lemon Dijon finishing sauce.
After baking for 15 minutes, broil from about 2 minutes to crisp up and brown the topping on the salmon.
Layer your plate with sweet potato cubes, asparagus, and salmon filet. Drizzle the lemon Dijon sauce over the top.
