BROILED ORANGE ROUGHY WITH LEMON, FINES HERBES AND PAPRIKA



Broiled Orange Roughy With Lemon, Fines Herbes and Paprika image

Created this last night in the (desperate) phase one of the South Beach Diet. TERRIFIC fish, I love orange roughy anyway, but this was really yummy! Cooking times and amounts are very much approximated, as I am reconstructing this based on my memory of preparing it last night. Also, you may substitute any white fish in place of orange roughy.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh orange roughy fillets: Look for firm, plump fillets with a bright orange color. Avoid fillets that are dull or have a slimy texture.
  • Thaw frozen fillets properly: If using frozen fillets, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or under cold water for 30 minutes. Never thaw fillets at room temperature, as this can promote bacterial growth.
  • Marinate the fillets: Marinating the fillets in a mixture of lemon juice, olive oil, herbs, and spices will help to infuse them with flavor and keep them moist during cooking.
  • Use a hot broiler: Broiling the fillets at a high temperature will help to create a crispy crust and prevent them from drying out.
  • Watch the cooking time carefully: Orange roughy fillets cook quickly, so it is important to watch them closely to prevent overcooking. Cook the fillets until they are just opaque and flaky in the center.

Conclusion:

Lemon-broiled orange roughy is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this versatile fish. The bright citrus flavor of the lemon pairs perfectly with the delicate flavor of the orange roughy, and the crispy crust adds a touch of texture. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table and is easy enough for a weeknight meal. Whether you are new to cooking or a seasoned pro, you will love this simple and delicious recipe.
