- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Rinse the halibut fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, olive oil, lemon zest, chopped parsley, chopped dill, ground black pepper, and paprika.
Step 4

Step 5
Brush the herb and oil mixture evenly over each fillet.
Step 6
Thinly slice the lemon and place a couple of slices on top of each fillet.
Step 7
Cover the baking sheet with foil, sealing the edges to create a tent over the fish.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork at the thickest part.
Step 9
Remove the foil in the last 5 minutes of cooking to allow the top to lightly brown.
