Baked Orange Roughy

This recipe is a nice alternative to fried fish, and the spices give the fish plenty of flavor. You can substitute any mild fish for the roughy.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 6

Ingredients

2 cups dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
6 orange roughy fillets, 3–4 ounces each
1 cup buttermilk, well shaken
Lemon wedges, for serving

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 375°F.

    Step 2

    In a large, flat dish, mix the bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, paprika, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Spray a 9 × 13 × 2-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Dip each fillet in the buttermilk, and then coat it with crumbs, pressing to be sure they adhere. Arrange the fillets in the baking dish and bake uncovered for 25 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve with the lemon wedges.
