Slow-Roasted Salmon with Fennel, Citrus, and Chiles

Preheat oven to 275°F. Toss fennel, orange slices, lemon slices, chile in a shallow 3-quart baking dish; season with kosher salt and pepper. Season salmon with kosher salt and place on top of fennel mixture. Pour oil over. Roast until salmon is just cooked through (the tip of a knife will slide through easily and flesh will be slightly opaque), 30–40 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer salmon to a platter, breaking it into large pieces as you go. Spoon fennel mixture and oil from baking dish over. Season with sea salt and pepper and top with fresh dill sprigs.
