"My Dad made this for me last week when I was visiting in Palm Springs. Even though I am not a fish lover, it was so good that I gobbled it up. It is easy and good for you."

This recipe was a surprise hit! I used 2 orange roughy fillets (first time cooking them), dijon mustard, panko bread crumbs and 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper. I was afraid that the mustard would be too strong, but nope! WOW! Delicious! I'm going to try it with tilapia now. Thank you and YUM! -
I'm generally terrible at making fish, but I need to add fish to my diet and this turned out great! I actually made a mistake and added the cayenne to the honey mustard/egg mixture instead of the seasoned bread crumbs. After reading the reviews I couldn't resist adding chopped pecans to the bread crumbs, so I used about half and half bread crumbs and finely chopped pecans. I did "steep" the fish in the crumb mixture in the fridge for at least 1/2 hour as the recipe suggested, to keep the crust on (also "corrected my boo-boo with the cayenne). I wish I would have found this recipe earlier in my cooking life. Sooo good! I would think this would work with other fish varieties as well. Thanks! -
Delicious! With extra honey/mustard/cayenne on the side it was extra flavorful. Didn't have honey mustard but followed another review and mixed spicy brown mustard with honey.

This was very good. I opted to use plain dijon mustard instead of honey mustard and I couldn't be happier with the results. The rest of the instructions I followed as written. Even my husband, who isn't overly fond of fish, gobbled this up. Thanks. -
Instead of Honey Mustard we just used honey - and then added a bit of mustard. Instead of 'seasoned bread crumbs' we just added a bit of salt, thyme and black pepper. The real catch with preparing this dish properly is to not overcook the roughy. So for step #5 we recommend that you just use a medium-low heat..it makes a big difference. Overall a delightful pleasant dish, not fantastic but definitely something we're likely to make again.
