Delicious and easy to make!

This was a pretty decent way to bake fish. I had only haddock in the freezer and I used ground almond flour flavored with dried Italian seasoning instead of the Italian bread crumbs due to carbs,and cooking gluten free.Added 2 tablespoons of freshly grated parm cheese because I didn’t want to take away the delicate taste of the fish. Butter and plive oil work well for this dish, so I used both. I also added fresh basil and it upped the flavor for our tastes since there were reviews stating the fish needed more herbs and spices.

Breadcrumbs were mushy…wife didn’t like it.
Jennifer Martinez
This was delicious, my family & I loved it!

This is my go-to recipe for company. It’s so easy to make ahead, wrap and put in the fridge, then pop in the oven right before you’re ready to eat. Everyone raves about it and thinks it is a complicated recipe. I have to send the recipe home with my guests every time.
Amber Salazar
I felt the coating overpowered the taste of the fish and had too much garlic in it.
Brandon Watson
I added some ground Harissa. We like a bit of spice.
Benjamin Boyle
Tasty, easy, quick! I served it with sauteed broccolini and rice.
Ronald Williams
This was delicious and easy to make. I just recently found out that I love orange roughy. We used olive oil because I didn’t have butter. Otherwise I followed the recipe exactly. This one is a keeper!
Eric Gonzales
excellent
James Robinson
This was really good. I had 2 orange roughy fillets. I only made one minor change. I sprinkled half the bread crumbs over the bottom of the baking dish and the other half on top. The rest, I followed exactly. My husband who is not a fish lover, but loves Italian food, really loved it. I love fish but am not fond of most Italian food. This was the perfect recipe for both of us. Thank you for the recipe.

The flavor was good but I had hoped it would be crispier. I brushed both sides of the fillets with melted butter then dredged in the seasoned bread crumb Parmesan mixture. I used Panko and shredded Parmesan cheese which didn’t adhere to the fish very well. I baked at 400 for 20 minutes before the topping browned. Everyone thought it tasted delicious so I’ll try it again.
Dale Wells
Made this as the recipe calls except I had no romano cheese. We loved it, will definitely make again.
Kimberly Tyler
real quick and easy, the whole family loved it!
Heather Hansen
This recipe was awesome for any firm fish. There was no fishy flavor, even with roughy. We loved it!!
Katie Nguyen
Delicious. I am really picky about my fish and often don’t like fish dishes at all but this was the best I’ve had in a long time. Even better than some I’ve had at restaurants. I love salt and I did feel this recipe was a little salty. I slightly reduced the salt this time but would reduce it even more next time I make it.
Justin Wright
Easy, quick, and yummy!! paired this up with roasted butternut squash, zucchini and a tomato, Kalamalo olives, celery, cucumber and avocado salad…
Erik Harrell
Very good! Made per recipe with addition of two shakes of Mrs. Dash for added zip. Did not realize how mild a flavor orange roughy is. Found a fish my husband will be ready to eat again instead of suggesting we go out when I mention fish.
Erik Walsh
Loved this recipe! So easy, quick and full of flavor that even my cranky, only-eats-to-live husband went back for more! Will keep this one!
Jeffrey Williams
Except for adding some Italian seasoning sprinkled on top, I followed the recipe as written. It was great and cooked about 10-11 minutes.
Robert Ramirez
Very simple and delicious
