Orange Roughy Bonne Femme

This is my favorite fish recipe, and it’s very, very simple to make. Kids will probably like it, too.

YIELD: 4 servings, each with 1 gram of carbohydrates, no fiber, and 25 grams of protein.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1/4 cup low-carb bake mix
• Pinch of salt or Vege-Sal
• 3 to 4 tablespoons butter
• 1 1/2 pounds orange roughy fillets

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Mix the bake mix with the pinch of salt (about 1/8 teaspoon). Dip the fillets in the bake mix, covering them lightly allover.
2. Melt the butter in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Saute the “floured” fillets in the butter for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Serve just as it is, or with a squeeze of lemon juice.
