Step-by-Step Method
Preheat and prep the pan
Heat the oven to 200°C / 400°F. Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment so the fish lifts easily.
Mix the orange butter
In a small bowl, stir together melted butter, garlic, orange juice, and orange zest. Season with salt and black pepper.
Coat the fish
Place the fillets in a single layer. Spoon the sauce over the top, making sure each piece gets some garlic and zest.
Bake until flaky
Bake for 25–30 minutes. The fish is done when it flakes with a fork; thinner fillets may finish a bit sooner, so check near the end.
Rest and serve
Let the fish rest for 2 minutes. Spoon the pan juices over the fillets and serve warm.
