Almond Crusted Orange Roughy image

Provided by Late Night Gourmet

Categories     Orange Roughy

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb orange roughy
1/2 cup almonds
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1/4 cup skim milk
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground
2 tablespoons coconut oil

Steps:

  • Season both sides of each orange roughy fillet with salt and pepper.
  • Whisk the egg and milk together in a shallow bowl.
  • If almonds are already slivered, then they are ready to use. If not, then place in a food processor for 5 seconds to break them up. Pulse as needed. Alternately, place the almonds in a plastic bag and break up with a heavy metal can or meat mallet.
  • Mix the almonds with the flour in a second shallow bowl.
  • Melt the coconut oil in a pan on medium heat and roll around to coat. Vegetable oil can also be used.
  • NOTE: for the next 2 steps, it's best to use one hand for the milk-egg bowl and the other for the almonds-flour bowl.
  • Dredge the orange roughy fillets one at a time through the milk-egg mixture, holding them up to allow the excess liquids to drip off.
  • Place the fillet in the almond-flour mixture. Using your dry hand, make sure the fillet is coated in flour and almonds. Press almonds into the fillet on both sides.
  • Place one fillet at a time in time in the pan (unless you have a large enough pan to comfortably fit more than one). Cook fillet for 3 minutes on each side.
  • Repeat steps 7-9 for remaining fillets.

Tips:

  • To ensure the crispy texture of the almond coating, use almond meal instead of almond flour. Almond meal is coarser and provides a better crunch.
  • Enhance the citrus flavor by using a combination of orange juice, zest, and lemon juice. This will add a bright and tangy flavor that complements the fish.
  • For a flavorful and aromatic dish, use fresh thyme or oregano. These fresh ingredients add a delicate touch of herbal notes.
  • To achieve a golden brown coating on the fish, preheat the oven to a high temperature and cook the fish until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  • For an added touch of elegance and flavor, serve the almond-crusted orange roughy with a light and zesty lemon-butter sauce.

Conclusion:

Almond-crusted orange roughy is a culinary delight that showcases the perfect balance of flavours and texture. By following these tips and carefully executing the recipe, you can create a restaurant-quality dish in the comfort of your own home. The almond coating provides a crispy exterior that pairs wonderfully with the tender and flaky texture of the fish.
