Orange Roughy Recipe
Garlic Roughy with Peppercorns

This orange roughy recipe is great for a romantic dinner. Unlike some fish recipes it is not over filling and is fairly simple to cook. I personally enjoy it because it's not one of your typical recipes from friends.

It is unique in the fact that the orange roughy fish, sometimes called deep sea perch, is mostly found in the deep cold waters
(700 fathoms) of New Zealand and Australia. It is only with the use of high technology that the fish can be located and caught. With its main fishing season being from June to August, during the spawning season. The orange roughy is notable for its extraordinary lifespan — a recorded maximum of 149 years.

Its firm, white flesh and delicate shellfish-like flavor have made it highly popular around the world. The carcass and skin are rich in oil which helps it to retain moisture when cooking.

One of the best romantic dinner ideas is to have something different. You will not find this fish in all stores on a normal basis so why not treat your loved one to a special treat they will not have year round!

With that said

Enjoy...
