Garlic Butter Salmon with Asparagus

Ingredients:

• 2 salmon fillets (6 oz each)

• 1 bunch asparagus (about 12-16 spears), trimmed

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• 1 teaspoon lemon zest

• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Prepare the Asparagus: Place the asparagus on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Spread it out evenly, leaving space in the center for the salmon.

3. Season the Salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and a pinch of lemon zest. Place the fillets skin-side down in the center of the baking sheet.

4. Make the Garlic Butter: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat.

5. Coat and Bake: Spoon half of the garlic butter over the salmon fillets and the rest over the asparagus. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the asparagus is tender.

6. Serve: Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve hot.

Thomas Seyfried, Ph.D., is a biochemical geneticist, professor of biology at Boston College, and author of the groundbreaking book Cancer as a Metabolic Disease. As part of a lecture delivered on July 31, 2018, at the annual CrossFit Health Conference, Seyfried presented a report card on our current approaches to treating cancer in the United States. Looking at data from the American Cancer Society on cancer incidence and deaths per day between 2013 and 2017, he noted death rates are actually on the rise. “The more money we raise for cancer, the more cancer we get,” he observed. “So you have to ask, ‘What is going on here?’ ... This is a failure of monumental proportions.”
