1
Prepare the Salmon
Rinse the salmon fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Rub olive oil over the fillets, making sure they are evenly coated.
2
Season the Salmon
Sprinkle the blackening seasoning, salt, and black pepper evenly over both sides of the salmon fillets.
3
Prepare the Lettuce Leaves
Wash the lettuce leaves under cold water and pat them dry. Set aside on a plate.

4
Grill the Salmon
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the seasoned salmon fillets on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
5
Prepare the Side
While the salmon is grilling, trim the ends of the asparagus and toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill the asparagus for about 5-7 minutes until tender and slightly charred.

6
Serve the Dish
Place each grilled salmon fillet on a lettuce leaf. Arrange the grilled asparagus on the side. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the asparagus if desired.
