Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lay out 4 sheets of parchment paper, one for each snapper fillet.
- Step 2: Place each 6 oz snapper fillet in the center of a parchment sheet. Drizzle 1/2 tbsp olive oil over each fillet and season with 1/4 tsp sea salt and 1/4 tsp Tasmanian pepperberry powder.
- Step 3: Top each fillet with 1 thin slice of lemon, 1/4 garlic clove sliced thinly, and sprinkle 1/2 tbsp chopped fresh dill.
- Step 4: Fold the parchment paper over the fish and crimp the edges tightly to create sealed packets.
- Step 5: Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
- Step 6: Carefully open the packets to release steam and serve the snapper immediately with the cooked lemon and herbs.
