  • Thinly slice 1/2 cup asparagus and set aside. Toss the remaining asparagus in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Spread on the prepared baking sheet. Place fish on top of the asparagus. Drizzle the fish with 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1 tablespoon oil and season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
