For a deeper citrus flavor, zest one orange before slicing and add the zest to the orange juice mixture. If using skin-on salmon, place the fillets skin-side down while roasting for extra crispy skin. Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of your salmon fillets. Thicker fillets will require slightly longer cooking times. Serve with a side of quinoa or couscous instead of rice for a change of pace. A sprinkle of toasted slivered almonds adds a delightful crunch and nutty flavor to the finished dish. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.
