3. Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Pour the butter mixture over the salmon.
5. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and red pepper flakes.
6. Fold the sides of the foil over the salmon, sealing it well to prevent sauce leakage.
7. Bake in the oven for 12-16 minutes until cooked through.
8. Open the foil and broil the salmon for 2-3 minutes, being careful not to burn it.
9. Remove from the oven and spoon some of the butter sauce over the salmon before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley and lemon slices.
