DELECTABLE BAKED ORANGE ROUGHY

Steps:

• Pull off four sheets of good quality aluminum foil, each about 24 inches long. Double each one over so it's a foot long and spray with the cooking spray.
• Pre-heat the oven to 375-degrees F.
• Lay out a fillet on each sheet of foil and pull the sides up a bit so that it will hold liquid.
• Squeeze a half lemon over each fillet. Cut up the spent lemons into wedges and put the pieces around the fish.
• Pour the melted butter equally over each fillet. Lightly dust the top of each fillet with the paprika. Instead of paprika, you could substitute Old Bay Seasoning, which yields an excellent flavor. In any case, you may not need all the spice, depending on the size of your fillets.
• Close the foil and make a seal. Place the closed foil bowls into the oven, middle rack, and bake for 15 minutes.
• Revove the foil bowls from the oven, carefully open them to expose the filets and place them all on a sheet pan. Re-set the oven to "broil" (on "high" if there is a setting), and return the fish to the oven just above the middle rack. Broil for just a few minutes until you see very slight browning, no more than 5 minutes.
• Garnish with the parsley sprigs and serve hot with basmati rice on the side. (See: Recipe #217802 ). You can just leave the fish on the foil and place it on serving plates if you wish.
