4. Sprinkle the fish with the lemon juice and dot with the butter.
5. Fold the left side over the right and fold and crimp all around the packages, sealing tightly.
6. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for about 8 minutes. The packages should be slightly puffed up.

Make ahead:
The fish packets may be made up to 4 hours ahead. Allow to rest at room temperature at least 15 minutes before baking.
