👨‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

Place asparagus and water in a covered, microwave-safe, and vented bowl; steam in the microwave for 5 minutes.

Rub salmon with olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, dill weed, salt, and black pepper; place in a foil oven bag.

Toss spinach, capers, red onion, and asparagus with salt, black pepper, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in the foil oven bag.

Place vegetables on top of salmon.

Fold foil bag closed and place in a baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven until salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 30 minutes.

Carefully split bag open with a knife to release steam.
