ORANGE ROUGHY MARGARITA

Orange Roughy Margarita image

A tantalizing recipe that was quick to make and delicious to boot! My wife and I enjoyed it with quiet romantic music, candlelight, and flowers. The taste and experience was, needless to say, memorable! I hope you like it too! I am lazy at times and instead of making my own salsa, I used store-bought brand name salsa. It was good as well, while saving me time and work.

1 1/2 lbs orange roughy fillets
1/3 cup tequila

3/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon salt
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, divided
3 medium tomatoes, peeled, cored, and chopped

2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

Place fish in a glass dish large enough to have a single layer of fillets.
Combine tequilla, triple sec, lime juice, salt, garlic, and 2 teaspoons of oil.
Pour over fish and rub all over the fillets.
Cover and marinate for 1 hour at room temperature or 3 hours in the refrigerator - turning occasionally the fillets.
Shortly before serving time, combine salsa ingredients in a serving bowl.
Heat oiled grill to very hot.
Remove fish from the marinade.
Pat dry.
Cook on the well oiled grill (or use fish cooking basket) for about 4 minutes per side or until fish is opaque.

Serve with fresh tomato salsa.
