1
Marinate the Salmon
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper. Rub this marinade all over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well-coated. Let the salmon marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature.
2
Prepare Lemon
Slice the lemon in half. Squeeze one half over the marinated salmon for added flavor. Keep the other half for garnish.

3
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
4
Bake the Salmon
Place the marinated salmon fillets on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
5
Garnish and Serve
Once done, remove the salmon from the oven. Squeeze more lemon juice over the fillets before serving. Garnish with fresh dill and lemon slices.

6
Cook Asparagus
While the salmon is baking, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain and set aside.
7
Boil New Potatoes
In a separate pot, add the new potatoes and cover them with water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain and serve alongside the salmon.
