What's your favorite way to prepare orange roughy fillets?!
Answers: I make a crust by blending some sun dried tomatoes with fresh bread crumbs and herbs, sprinkle it on the skin side and roast it in the oven with some cherry tomatoes and make mash potatoes to go with it. Then I make a light vinagrette with lemon juice and drizzle it on top.
first way. skillet, melted butter with garlice adn rosemary. put into skillet saute for about 2-3 minutes each side/ you can also add some asparagus over the top of the fish as well, they match up in coontrasting tases.
second way. try blackened orange roughy. firer up a skillet on high. lightly lightly oil the pan. take your orange roughy fillet and cover it with a mixture of cayeenne pepper, garlic powder and sea salt. drop it in the skillet and pan sear it, about trhee minutes a side. the outside should crisp up almost to a burnt looking state, but the fish will be moist and flacky inside. try a squeeze of fresh lime on top of the fish when you are done cooking. a cheesey potatoe will go good with this.
enjoy.

* 1 pound orange roughy fillets
* 1/4 cup butter, melted
* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Coat a medium baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
2. In a shallow bowl, mix bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, garlic powder, and salt.
3. Brush both sides of orange roughy fillets with butter, and dredge in the bread crumb mixture. Arrange fillets in a single layer in the prepared baking dish, and sprinkle with parsley.
4. Bake in preheated oven 10 to 15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
This is a very easy recipe, and requires no measuring. It's based on a recipe in a very old New Orleans cookbook. Melt 1/2 a stick of butter. Place each fillet on a square of foil. Over each, pour some of the butter and squeeze on some lemon juice. Add a dash of Worcestershire sauce, some Louisiana hot sauce (if you like) to taste, and a sprinkling of Old Bay seasoning or Zatarain's creole seasoning. Add freshly ground black pepper to taste and fold up each bundle. Place on a cookie sheet and bake 12-15 minutes on 375 F. If you are watching your salt intake, you can cut back on the Worcestershire and use a salt-free seasoning blend. This is delicious, and so easy. Steamed new potatoes and roasted fresh asparagus are great with this, and make a wonderful spring supper fit for company.
