   Prepare the Lemon Compound Butter

   In a small bowl, mix softened butter with lemon zest and lemon juice. Set aside.

   Season the Salmon

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Brush the salmon fillets with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.

   Roast the Salmon

   Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

   Grill the Asparagus

   While the salmon is roasting, heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill for about 5-7 minutes until tender and slightly charred.

   Serve

   To serve, place a scoop of cilantro lime rice on each plate. Top with a piece of roasted salmon, a dollop of basil pesto, and a pat of lemon compound butter. Arrange grilled asparagus on the side.
