Orange roughy is a New Zealand fish
with a firm white flesh, mild flavor, and is low in fat. If you can’t find
specific recipes for orange roughy, look for recipes that call for snapper,
grouper, or any other firm white fish, as they are similar to the roughy and can
be prepared in the same way.

Broiled Orange Roughy
6 4-oz. orange roughy fillets
2 T. water
1 t. peeled, minced gingerroot
1/2 t. lemon juice
1/2 t. soy sauce
1/4 t. crushed red pepper
2 T. toasted sesame seeds
Place fillets in a shallow baking dish. Combine water, ginger, lemon juice, soy
sauce and crushed red pepper and process in a blender until smooth. Pour over
fillets, cover and marinate in refrigerator about two hours.
Remove the fillets from the marinade and coat both sides with sesame seeds.
Spray a broiler rack with non-stick vegetable spray and heat broiler.
Broil about four inches from heat for six to eight minutes or until fish flakes
easily with a fork. Keep the door propped open slightly.
Arrange on a warm serving platter and spritz with more lemon juice. Don’t
overcook.
Serves 6.
