Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/4 lbs orange roughy fillets
1 teaspoon seasoning salt (or to taste)
pepper
paprika
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine, melted

Steps:

  • Put fish fillets in a greased 11x7 inch baking dish.
  • Sprinkle with seasoned salt, pepper, and paprika.
  • Drizzle with melted butter.
  • Cover and bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily.

Tips:

  • To ensure the best results, choose fresh and firm orange roughy fillets. Look for fillets that are bright in color and have a mild, sweet smell.
  • Before cooking, pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. This will help the fish sear properly and prevent it from steaming.
  • Season the fish fillets generously with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help enhance the natural flavors of the fish.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when cooking the fish fillets. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the fish fillets over medium heat until they are cooked through. The fish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork.
  • Serve the fish fillets immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for orange roughy include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
