Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down if applicable.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Brush the mixture evenly over each salmon fillet.
Bake for 12–15 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from oven and let rest for a couple of minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

For extra flavor, marinate the salmon in the seasoning mixture for 30 minutes before baking.
Adjust baking time depending on the thickness of the fillets.
Serve with roasted vegetables or a light salad for a complete meal.
