Pro tips
- Patting the salmon completely dry with a paper towel is the most important step for getting a crisp, seasoned crust.
- Ensure the salmon fillets and asparagus are in a single layer on the sheet pan. This allows them to roast properly instead of steaming.
- If you don't have a jar of seasoning, make your own by mixing 2 tablespoons of sesame seeds, 1 tablespoon of poppy seeds, 1 tablespoon of dried minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon of dried minced onion.
