Super Easy, Delish, and Healthy Salmon Dish! (with optional Aoli)

This dish is one of my favorites at the moment.  It is pretty simple to put together, it is good for you, and it tastes AMAZING!  Okay... so maybe the aoli isn't the best for you, but using a light mayo instead of regular cuts the bad stuff a bit I suppose...

Here's what you'll need: (2 servings)
Salmon fillets (2)
Asparagus
Fingerling or small Red potatoes (the little tiny guys, or you can cube up larger ones... I prefer the colorful little ones)
Mayonnaise
Lemon
Garlic clove (1)
Deli mustard

Easy Peasy!

The idea here is minimal prep and relatively quick cook time resulting in an excellent meal!

Preheat oven to 400°F

Boil the potatoes in water for about 10 minutes (just enough to soften them a little) - Strain

Line a cookie tray with foil.  Place the salmon (skin side down) and arrange the potatoes and rinsed and trimmed asparagus on the cookie tray.  Sprinkle a little olive oil, salt, and pepper over everything. Cover and SEAL (as best you can) the tray with another piece of foil. Pop it in the oven for about 15 minutes. After the 15 minutes, I like to remove the top foil and BROIL the tray for about 2-3 minutes. *Watch carefully so it doesn't burn! Let it sit covered on tray out of oven for about 5 minutes. As it bakes, make your aoli!

In a small bowl combine about 3 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon mustard, and 1 clove minced garlic. Mix it up with a spoon or fork and POW! There's your aoli!

Serve beautifully on a plate with a dollop of the aoli and ENJOY!

*WARNING* You may become addicted to the aoli after this meal. You'll want to put it on everything!
