1 1/2 lb. piece of skinless salmon fillet (or cod or halibut)

1 blood orange, mandarin orange or regular orange, thinly sliced

Heat oven to 300 degrees.  Season fish with salt and pepper on both sides.  Place in a large baking dish with sliced lemons, orange and thyme (or other herbs) if using.  Drizzle everything with the olive oil and bake until fish is just turning opaque at the edges and is nearly cooked through, 25-35 minutes.  Toss fresh herbs with 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice and flaky salt.  Serve alongside fish and enjoy!
