ORANGE ROUGHY IN ORANGE SAUCE



Orange Roughy in Orange Sauce image

I really enjoyed this fish -- first time I really enjoyed poached fish -- but this was great. Good with or without the lavender. Recipe source: local newspaper which was originally printed in Cooking with Lavender.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large orange roughy fillet (mine was a little over 1/2 pound)
pepper
1 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons dried lavender
2 carrots, peeled and cut into julienne stripes
3 scallions, sliced into julienne strips
1 teaspoon peanut oil
1 cup white wine
2 tablespoons orange liqueur (I skipped the liqueur) (optional)

Steps:

  • Pepper both sides of the fish.
  • Pour orange juice in a measuring cup (I used ready-made but imagine freshly squeezed from 2 oranges will be so much better), stir in lavender and white wine and set aside.
  • Heat peanut oil (or use unsalted butter) in small skillet, stirring to coat until tender (5 minutes).
  • Meanwhile in a large skillet, suitable for poaching fish, add orange juice mixture and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Add fish and lower heat to a simmer until fish is tender and flakes with a fork (10 - 15 minutes). Remove fish to a platter and keep warm.
  • Add orange liqueur, if using, to pan and turn up heat and reduce by half. Return fish to pan until heated through.
  • Place fish on plates and top with vegetables, spooning sauce over fish.

Tips:

  • When choosing orange roughy, look for fish that is firm to the touch and has a mild, slightly sweet smell.
  • If you are using frozen orange roughy, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • To make the mushroom sauce, use a variety of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Sauté the mushrooms in butter until they are browned and softened.
  • Add white wine and chicken broth to the mushrooms and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Thicken the sauce with a roux made from butter and flour.
  • Season the sauce with salt, pepper, and herbs, such as thyme and rosemary.
  • Serve the orange roughy with the mushroom sauce and your favorite sides, such as rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Orange roughy in a mushroom sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The fish is mild and flaky, and the mushroom sauce is rich and flavorful. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
