ORANGE ROUGHY MEUNIERE - CLASSIC FRENCH SAUCE
Steps:
- Cut the lemon in half. Save one half, squeeze out the juice and keep aside until ready to make the sauce. Take the other half and cut in 4 wedges to serve along with the fish when ready to serve. Season the fillets lightly with salt and pepper, dip in the milk, and dredge them in the flour. Shake off any excess flour.
- Heat 4 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter stop foaming, add the fillets. Cook turning once, until golden brown and fully cooked. About 5 minutes. Transfer to the dinner plates and keep warm.
- Lower the heat under the skillet and swirl in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. When the butter is melted, but not foaming, add the juice of the half lemon and the fresh parley. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat. Spoon the sauce over the fillets and serve the lemon wedge along side the fish.

ORANGE ROUGHY IN ORANGE SAUCE
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.

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.

Steps:
- Place fish fillets in a baking dish sprayed with Pam.
- In a bowl, mix mayo, lemon, lime and mustard.
- Add in dill and stir well.
- Spread all of the sauce over the fillets.
- Then sprinkle with the Parmesan.
- Bake at 375 for 20 minutes (or until fish is done), then broil for 5 minutes to get top crispy and brown.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm, and bright-eyed orange roughy fillets. Look for fillets that are free of any blemishes or discoloration.
- Pat the fillets dry with paper towels before cooking. This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the pan.
- Use a non-stick skillet or pan over medium heat. This will help to prevent the fish from sticking and burning.
- Cook the fish for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Do not overcook, as this will make the fish dry and tough.
- Make sure the sauce is hot before serving. You can reheat the sauce in a saucepan over low heat, or in the microwave.
- Serve the fish immediately, topped with the sauce. You can garnish with fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley.
Conclusion:
This saucy orange roughy recipe is a quick and easy way to prepare a delicious and healthy meal. The combination of tangy orange sauce and flaky, tender fish is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve with your favorite sides, such as rice, steamed vegetables, or mashed potatoes.
