Using a large baking sheet, place 1 sheet of foil on top. Place salmon filet on top of foil and curl edges slightly around salmon.
In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, naranja agria, garlic, green onions, cumin, cayenne pepper, black pepper, paprika, salt, and oregano until well combined.
Pour the marinade over the salmon, ensuring they are fully coated. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
Preheat oven to 425° F. Place salmon in oven and bake for 12-14 minutes or until your desired doneness is reached.
While salmon is cooking, make the avocado salsa by combining all ingredients in a large bowl and stirring to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste
When salmon is finished cooking, let cool for 5 minutes. Top with avocado salsa mixture and serve immediately.
