- 2 salmon fillets
- 1 bunch asparagus trimmed
- 2 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tbsp fresh dill chopped

Corn on the Cobb
- 2 ears of corn husked
- 2 tbsp butter melted
- 2 cloves garlic minced

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wrap each ear of corn in foil with the melted butter, garlic, lemon juice, dill, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the salmon and asparagus on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic, dill, lemon slices, salt, and pepper.
Bake the corn for 25 minutes. Add the salmon and asparagus to the oven during the last 12–15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily and the asparagus is tender.
Serve the salmon with the asparagus and herb butter corn. Finish with an extra squeeze of fresh lemon and fresh dill, if desired.
