  • 8 oz fresh asparagus tips
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 (10 oz) package frozen cauliflower rice medley
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic

    2. Coat salmon with lime zest and ½ teaspoon seasoning (wash hands); coat salmon and asparagus with spray and arrange in single layer on baking sheet. Broil 6 minutes on center rack, then move baking sheet to top rack; broil 1–2 more minutes until vegetables are tender and centers of fillets are 145°F and flake easily.
