Season the fish with salt, pepper, and drizzle with olive oil.

Wrap the fish in parchment paper (cartoccio) to seal in the flavors.

For the emulsion, mix the zest and juice of one lemon with minced garlic, parsley, salt, pepper, and olive oil.

Drizzle the emulsion over the fish before sealing the parchment.

Bake the wrapped fish in the oven until cooked through.
