Instructions

Set oven to 400°F.
Use a mandoline slicer to slice your oranges into 1/8 inch slices. Remove any seeds.
Arrange the slices in the middle of two large sheets of parchment paper. Overlap them out so they are about the size of your fish fillet. Top the oranges with fresh sprigs of thyme.
Lay the fish on top of the thyme, and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle liberally with olive oil.
Bring the two long sides of paper up around the fish and roll or fold to secure. Do the same with each end.
Lay the packets on a baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes. The fish will be steamed perfectly. If you are using thick pieces of fish you may want to check that it is done to your liking.
Serve immediately sprinkled with some fresh thyme. Remove the cooked thyme if you like.
