🥣 Instructions to Make Crab Stuffed Sole Recipe

Step 1: Prepare the Crab Stuffing

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the crab meat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, egg, celery, onion, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, parsley, salt, and pepper.
2. Gently fold all ingredients together until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to preserve the crab meat’s texture.
3. Set the mixture aside.

Step 2: Roll and Stuff the Sole

1. Lay each fillet flat on a clean surface.
2. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
3. Place about 2 tablespoons of crab stuffing at the end of each fillet and roll tightly.
4. Place each stuffed sole seam-side down in a greased baking dish.

Step 3: Bake

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Brush the top of each rolled sole with melted butter.
3. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 4: Serve

• Plate with lemon wedges, drizzle lightly with more butter if desired.
• Serve hot with a side of seasoned rice or sautéed vegetables.

🍽️ Serving Suggestions

• Pair with garlic mashed potatoes or steamed asparagus.
• A crisp white wine like Chardonnay enhances the seafood flavor beautifully.
