Glazed Salmon with Garlic Butter Potatoes and Cheesy Asparagus

🧄🔥 Glazed Salmon with Garlic Butter Potatoes & Cheesy Asparagus 🧀🐟

This glazed salmon dish pairs tender, caramelized fillets with buttery roasted potatoes and cheesy herb-topped asparagus for a complete, flavour-packed meal. The salmon develops a sweet-savory glaze thanks to a simple mix of honey, paprika, garlic powder, and olive oil, while the potatoes roast until crisp outside and soft inside before being finished with melted butter and fresh parsley. The asparagus bakes alongside, becoming tender and lightly golden beneath a melted blanket of mozzarella or gouda. Each component complements the others, creating a balanced plate with richness, freshness, and satisfying textures.

With minimal prep and everything timed to finish together, this recipe works well for a weeknight dinner yet feels special enough for an elevated meal. The combination of roasted vegetables and pan-seared salmon offers contrast in both cooking method and flavour, and the final assembly brings all elements together in a colourful, nourishing presentation.
