Fish Fillets In Parchment With Asparagus & Orange - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 (5 -6 ounce) fish fillets (such as halibut or cod, each about 1 inch thick)
    12 fresh tarragon leaves
    1 -2 tablespoon butter, cut into 4 pieces
    1 lb slender asparagus spear, trimmed, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
    4 tablespoons orange juice
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 400\u00b0F.
    Place parchment squares on work surface. Generously butter half of each parchment square; top buttered half of each with 1 fish fillet. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper; top each fillet with 3 tarragon leaves, then 1 piece of butter. Arrange asparagus around each fish fillet; pour 1 tablespoon orange juice over each. Fold parchment over fish and asparagus, folding and crimping edges tightly to seal and enclose filling completely. Place on 2 rimmed baking sheets, spacing apart. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Chill.).
