Ingredients

Scale

Crab Stuffing

  • 8 oz fresh crab meat, picked
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning

Main Ingredients

  • 4 sole fillets (fresh)
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the stuffed sole.
  2. Prepare Crab Filling: In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, fresh lemon juice, and Old Bay seasoning until the mixture is well blended.
  3. Stuff the Sole Fillets: Spoon an even amount of the crab mixture onto each sole fillet. Starting from the narrower end, carefully roll up each fillet to encase the filling.
  4. Arrange and Add Wine: Place the rolled fillets seam side down in a baking dish. Pour the dry white wine evenly over the top to infuse moisture and enhance flavor during cooking.
  5. Bake the Fish: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, ensuring the crab stuffing is heated and set.

Notes

  • Ensure the crab meat is fresh or well-drained to avoid watery filling.
  • Old Bay seasoning can be substituted with a blend of paprika, celery salt, and black pepper if unavailable.
  • Serving suggestion: garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges for added freshness.
  • Use a baking dish that fits the fillets snugly to prevent them from unrolling during baking.
