Preparation

1. Preheat your grill and oven to the appropriate temperatures for grilling the salmon and roasting the potatoes and asparagus. 2. Wash all vegetables and the salmon fillet. Quarter the potatoes for roasting. Trim the asparagus spears. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Keep the mixed salad greens fresh and clean. 3. Season the salmon fillet and potatoes with salt, pepper, possibly garlic powder, or your preferred herbs and spices. 4. Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and asparagus, ensuring they are coated evenly. Prepare the lemon wedges for garnish.

Cooking

1. Place the seasoned potatoes in the oven to roast until they are golden brown and tender, approximately 25-30 minutes. 2. While the potatoes are roasting, grill the salmon fillet to your liking, usually 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, depending on thickness. 3. In the last 10 minutes of roasting the potatoes, add the asparagus to the oven, roasting until tender but still crisp. 4. Assemble the dish by placing the grilled salmon on a bed of mixed salad greens. Surround with roasted potatoes, asparagus, and cherry tomatoes. 5. Finish with a drizzle of balsamic glaze over the salmon and vegetables. Garnish with lemon wedges.
