Coat the seafood in Aussie fish seasoning.
Cook in a hot pan or grill for 2 minutes each side (or until just cooked through) and set aside.
Meanwhile, boil asparagus until just tender, drain and rinse with cold water.
Mix asparagus, olives, dill tips and mixed leaves in a large bowl and dress with white wine vinegar and lemon juice. If you have it substitute VerJus for the lemon juice.
