How to Make Baked Orange Roughy Italian Style

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Lightly coat a medium-sized baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches) with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. In a shallow bowl, combine 1 cup breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons grated Romano cheese, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix well.
  4. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Brush both sides of 4 (6-ounce) orange roughy fillets with melted butter.
  5. Dredge each fillet in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  6. Arrange the breaded fillets in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
  7. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley over the fillets.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
