Whitefish With Orange Rice Stuffing image

This is very falvorful and gives the fish a lovely orange flavor. Becareful not to use older oranges as the zest tends to be a bit more bitter. Also be careful not to get any of the pith. If you want a bit of a sweeter taste you can substitute a table spoon of lemon juice for orange juice.
