Recommended Tools & Appliances

AI Pick

Digital Instant-Read Meat Thermometer

It ensures the salmon is cooked to the perfect internal temperature of 145°F so it remains moist and flaky.

Citrus Juicer

It allows you to easily extract fresh lemon juice without getting seeds into your marinade.

Garlic Press

It quickly minces garlic cloves into a uniform paste that distributes flavor evenly across the salmon and asparagus.

Rimmed Baking Sheet

Rimmed Baking Sheet

The edges prevent any juices or olive oil from dripping off the pan while the salmon and asparagus roast in the oven.
