It’s Lent, which means it’s time for a lot more fish recipes around here. I’m a big seafood fan anyway, but I end up making more seafood recipes than usual during Lent. I made this the other night on Ash Wednesday. It’s a a quick and easy weeknight dinner, and it only requires one pan. I served this with rice, but that was not necessary at all. I actually found I didn’t eat much of the rice. The flavor on the fish was great, and the lemon pepper asparagus was flavorful and cooked perfectly.

Place the fish in between the asparagus and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through. If your pieces of fish are really large, consider giving the asparagus a 5 minute head start.
