Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish. Fresh herbs, in particular, can really brighten up the flavor of crab stuffed orange roughy.
- Don't overcook the fish. Orange roughy is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque and flaky. Any longer, and it will become dry and tough.
- Use a variety of crabmeat. You can use a combination of lump crabmeat, backfin crabmeat, and claw crabmeat for a more complex flavor.
- Season the crabmeat well. Be sure to season the crabmeat with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. This will help to enhance the flavor of the crab.
- Stuff the fish carefully. When you are stuffing the fish, be careful not to overstuff it. Otherwise, the fish will be difficult to cook evenly.
- Bake the fish until it is cooked through. The fish should be baked until it is opaque and flaky. The internal temperature should be at least 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
