Trim one large bunch of asparagus. Lightly toss with extra-virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with coarse salt & cracked pepper. Spread out on roasting sheet sprayed with Pam and plop in top rack of oven the same time as the fish. Both should be finished at the same time. Sprinkle with lemon juice and serve with salmon.
