Ingredients
- 4 pieces Orange roughy fillets
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish large enough to fit four fillets in a single layer.
Step 2
Pat the orange roughy fillets dry with paper towels. Place them in the prepared baking dish.
Step 3
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and whisk in the Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper until smooth.
Step 4
Brush the mustard mixture evenly over the fillets, ensuring that each piece is well coated.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is opaque throughout.
Step 6
Remove the dish from the oven and let the fillets rest for 2-3 minutes.
Step 7
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite sides such as steamed vegetables, rice, or a crisp green salad.
