Pecan-Coated Roughy Recipe

  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 4 (6 ounce) fillets orange roughy
  • 1 tablespoon chopped shallots
  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  1. Place the egg and pecans in separate shallow bowls. Dip fillets into egg, then coat with pecans. Place in a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 400 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, saute shallot in butter until tender. Add wine. Bring to a boil; cook for 1-2 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch, orange juice and mustard until smooth; stir into wine mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with orange roughy.
