Yield: 8 people
Materials
- 1 medium fennel bulb thinly sliced
- 1 blood or navel orange very thinly sliced, seeds removed
- 1 Meyer or regular lemon very thinly sliced, seeds removed
- 1 jalapeno pepper small diced, with seeds
- 6 sprigs dill plus more per serving
- 1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 1 2-pound salmon fillet skinless
- 2 teaspoons fish seasoning Pritikin Fish Seasoning or other no-salt fish seasoning
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 275∞ F. Lightly mist with oil spray the bottom of a shallow 3-quart baking dish (such as a 9- by 13-inch Pyrex dish).
