In a small saucepan on low heat, melt butter. Add garlic and stir occasionally until garlic is cooked, about 5 minutes.
Add tequila, thyme, and lime zest. Cook until alcohol has burned off, about 2 minutes. Add parsley and remove from heat.
Lightly coat one side of the filet and place herb side down on a baking sheet lined with foil. Use remaining herb butter to more heavily coat the top side. Dust with paprika.
Bake approximately 15 minutes, until fish is opaque throughout and segments flake apart easily.
