    Pat fish dry with paper towels. Season both sides of fillets with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place 1 fillet skin-side down onto one side of 1 sheet parchment. Top with 2 lemon halves, 1/2 cup tomato mixture and 2 Butter Balls. Close parchment; crimp and fold edges to create tight seal. Transfer to baking sheet.
