Step 1

Heat the oven to 250 degrees F.

Step 2

Lightly oil the bottom of a baking dish and arrange some of the orange and lemon slices on it.

Step 3

Season the salmon with kosher salt and black pepper on both sides. Mix together the oregano, mint, and Aleppo chile flakes. Rub this seasoning mix over the salmon.

Step 4

Place the seasoned salmon in the baking dish over the arranged citrus slices. Top with the minced garlic, lemon juice, and drizzle with 2 to 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. Arrange the remaining citrus slices on top of the salmon and drizzle with a bit more olive oil.

Step 5

Roast in the heated oven for about 25 to 30 minutes, watching carefully to make sure the salmon does not overcook (the top may look a bit translucent still, but if the salmon flakes easily, it is ready).
