Season with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Place a halibut fillet on top and drizzle with more olive oil, salt, and a bit of lemon zest. Bring the two sides of the parchment up over the halibut, align the edges, and fold down the parchment tightly over the fish. Turn the packet and fold the ends of the parchment under the fish to create a tight packet. Bake 8-12 minutes.
• Finish the dish: The halibut is cooked when the fish is opaque and firm to the touch. Set the packet on a serving plate and carefully open. Finish with 1 tablespoon olive oil, scallions, and lemon juice and serve.
