Instructions

Set oven to 400F
Fan out the sliced lemons on two sheets of parchment paper to form a bed for the fish.
Lay the fish on the lemons, and season with salt and pepper.
Arrange the fresh herbs on top of the fish, and then give it a light drizzle of olive oil. Dot with butter, if using.
Wrap the fish in the paper. Bring the two long sides up and fold like a lunch bag. Fold the two end as well, tucking them under the fish so the packet stays secure. Make a small slit in the paper to allow steam to escape.
Bake for 20 minutes. Serve the fish hot, still in the packets.
