Sheet Pan Salmon & Veggies

cooking spray
1 lb. kabocha squash (washed)
2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil (divided)
1 tsp. paprika
1 tbsp. garlic salt (divided)
black pepper
3 lb. salmon fillets or steaks
1 tsp. dried dill
1 lemon (zested then thinly sliced)
1 lb. asparagus
fresh dill (garnish)

Preheat oven to 425°F. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with parchment or foil and generously coat with cooking spray.

Cut the kabocha squash in half and discard the seeds; then cut each half into ½” slices.

In a large bowl, toss the kabocha in 1 tbsp. olive oil then sprinkle with 1 tsp. garlic salt and pepper to taste, and place on one side of the prepared sheet pan. Bake the kabocha for 15 minutes.

Remove the pan from the oven and increase the temperature to 450°F. Add the salmon to the pan, season with dill, 1 tsp. garlic salt and pepper to taste, then top with lemon slices. Cook for 10 minutes.

Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus and place into a large bowl. Toss with the remaining 1 tbsp. olive oil, 1 tsp. garlic salt and pepper to taste. Add the asparagus to the sheet pan and bake for an additional 5 minutes (may need a little longer for thick salmon).

Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the asparagus with lemon zest. Serve this easy-to-prepare, easy clean-up, quick & ‘ono weeknight dinner with a glass of Merlot.
