Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rinse the white fish fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, chopped parsley, chopped dill, minced garlic, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper.
Place the fish fillets in a single layer in a large baking dish.
Pour the lemon herb mixture over the fish, ensuring each fillet is well coated.
Arrange the lemon slices on top of the fish.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place in the preheated oven.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the foil during the last 5 minutes of baking for a lightly golden finish.
Garnish with additional fresh herbs before serving, if desired, and serve immediately.
