Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Lay two slices of prosciutto slightly overlapping on a clean surface. Place a fish fillet on top of the prosciutto with the wider end aligned to you.
Place a small sprig of thyme and a sprinkle of minced garlic on top of the fish fillet.
Wrap the prosciutto tightly around the fillet, making sure the seam is on the bottom. Repeat for all fillets.
Slice the lemon into thin rounds and set aside.
Place the wrapped fish fillets seam-side down onto the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over the top of each fillet.
Lay one or two lemon slices on top of each wrapped fillet, adding extra brightness and flavor during roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve hot with a side of roasted vegetables, salad, or herbed rice for a complete meal.
