There is some evidence that eating Orange Roughy once a week will lower your cholesterol. However, I wouldn't eat it more than that since it can have high mercury levels. It is a wonderful tasting fish and here is a recipe that I think is delicious. I had it last night for dinner.
Orange Roughy Citrus:
10 – 12 ounces orange roughy fillets
¼ cup slivered almonds
5 sprigs parsley, minced
3 T. melted butter
Juice of 1 lemon
Juice of 1 lime
Salt and Pepper to taste.
Paprika
Arrange the Roughy in a single layer in a small shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with almonds and parsley. Combine the butter and juices, pour over fish and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Cover and bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees, then uncover and bake it for 15 minutes more. Sprinkle with paprika and add a bit more parsley to look pretty.
Serves two.
