- 1 - bunch parsley thick stems destemmed
- 1 tablespoons - Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoons - honey
- 1/2 - lemon for juice

3. In a large sauce pan, heat olive oil at high heat and add asparagus. Then add garlic. Cook until garlic is thoroughly cooked for about 2 minutes (you smell garlic aroma when it's cooked) then set aside.
4. Chop capers and red onion and set aside.
5. In a baking sheet, place aluminum foil (optiona) and salmon fillet. Sprinkle salt and pepper and drizzle olive oil. Broil 8-9 minutes (or until done) and set aside.
6. In a large bowl, mix potatoes, asparagus, capers and red onion. Break salmon into bite size pieces and mix with the the rest. Add green sauce and serve.
