I want to go pick some up at the store. Can you share how you prepare this stuff and some good variations on spicing it up?

Thanks.

Yea, I'd like to know also. I just pepper and a little salt, put in a pan and fry it up n some olive oil. Great stuff.

You can grill it (be careful it breaks easy) or pan fry with extra virgin olive oil with lemon pepper and a lil garlic salt... Squeeze alil lemon juice on it and you will be a happy camper. You can also put a little spaghetti sauce on it to give it a little extra zing but do not drown it

Will get some going here shortly, thanks for the info. I noticed this stuff is more expensive than salmon, and I love salmon so for the extra cash I hope it is good!

I hate to admit this but to be honest I'm not sure what orange Roughy is. I'll do a search tommorrow and check around and see if I can find anything else out. Sorry for the let down guy's.

lemon pepper, and lemon juice stick it on foil and on the bar-b, Orange roughy is such good fish, don't need to cover the taste, lemon is great on it.

I found this thread when I was researching for some of my diet recipes..and I'm a HUGE fan of Orange Roughy...a great fish, without the fishy taste.

I must say my favorite way to prepare this dish is as follows.

4-6 Lemons Squeezed into a bowl. (I'd guess about a cup and a half)
Same quantity of Italian dressing (pick your favorite brand

)

Take all the orange roughy you can get ( I happen to go to the local "super wal-mart" and buy the pre-packaged ones with about 3 fillets in each) I can normally fit about 8 filliets in a bowl. Make sure they are immersed in the mixture. Let it sit for around 20-30 minutes.

Place on a non-stick backing pan and back at 350 degree's until lightly brown, or until they flake. There will be no need for any oil on the pan, as the juice that is left over can be used to keep the fillets moist so they do not stick. (also helps the flavor a bit)

Just my favorite recipe (Tobey, let me know if ya like this)
