Broiled Orange Roughy

Broiled Orange Roughy

6 4-oz. orange roughy fillets

2 T. water

1 t. peeled, minced gingerroot

1/2 t. lemon juice

1/2 t. soy sauce

1/4 t. crushed red pepper

2 T. toasted sesame seeds

Place fillets in a shallow baking dish. Combine water, ginger, lemon juice, soy sauce and crushed red pepper and process in a blender until smooth. Pour over fillets, cover and marinate in refrigerator about two hours.

Remove the fillets from the marinade and coat both sides with sesame seeds. Spray a broiler rack with non-stick vegetable spray and heat broiler.

Broil about four inches from heat for six to eight minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Keep the door propped open slightly.

Arrange on a warm serving platter and spritz with more lemon juice. Don’t overcook.
