Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Rinse the white fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

Place the white fish fillets in a baking dish. Pour the lemon herb mixture over the fillets, ensuring they are well covered.

Step 8

Cover the baking dish with foil and let the fish marinate in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the marinated fish from the refrigerator and place it in the preheated oven. Bake, covered, for 15 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
