This is one of my my favorite influences of "The Naked Chef" Jamie Oliver. I like the way he does things in a quick and easy way with full of flavors.. lots of goodness!!! This recipe has never failed me by far. Preparation can be done in advance, it gives time to prepare other goodness for the dining table and just pop it in the oven when everything is ready.
There's nothing more surprising than opening a main course just like opening a present and the aroma just meets you straight away with steaming goodness.
Here's a guide: there is nothing precise on the portion of the ingredients as long everything can fit and wrapped securely without any leak. The ingredients is up to your liking as well. Others can be skipped or maybe substituted. Keeping in mind the balance of its acidity of lemon and portion of butter/olive oil. Lemon can be overpowering but it is necessary.
Ingredients:
Fish fillet
peeled garlic
chopped onions
chopped leeks
chopped spring onions
red capsicum
butter
lemon
olive oil
salt and pepper
Cut a portion of baking paper (about 1 foot long) and lay it flat on a plate. Place the fish fillet in the center and season with salt and pepper; add onions, garlic, leeks, spring onions, capsicum on top of the fish add a knob of butter on top, squeeze a lemon and drizzle a little olive oil.

Fold the ends lengthwise first, pressing the crease each fold and secure the sides. |
To wrap everything, fold the baking paper lengthwise, make a crease each time by pressing it with your fingers, (make 3-4 folds), then secure the ends by creasing crosswise, making the last fold facing down.

Secure the ends by folding the ends, press the crease each fold |

Lay it flat in a baking dish with the crease on the top side. |
Bake for 30 minutes in the oven.. Make it the last thing you put on the plate so that it remains warm upon serving.
Just perfect for a weekend lunch.
BTW, I had posted one with a different variation long time back:
