CRAB STUFFED FISH



Crab Stuffed Fish image

I love this dish I got it off of the T.V years ago and I make it often. I normally use a whitefish of some sort. Tilapia or Flounder are my favorites. I usually serve with rice and steamed vegetable. It's filled with flavor and is pretty easy to make. I could eat the stuffing all by it's self. A lot of times I double the stuffing but it's up to you what you think.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish fillets. For this recipe, firm-fleshed fish fillets such as tilapia, cod, or haddock work best.
  • Make sure the crab meat is fresh. Fresh crab meat has a sweet and briny flavor. Avoid crab meat that is mushy or has a strong fishy smell.
  • Don't overcook the fish fillets. Fish fillets are very delicate and can easily be overcooked. Cook them just until they are opaque in the center and flake easily with a fork.
  • Use a good quality breadcrumb mixture. The breadcrumb mixture is what gives the crab-stuffed fish fillets their crispy coating. Use a mixture that is made with fresh bread crumbs and seasoned with herbs and spices.
  • Serve the crab-stuffed fish fillets with your favorite sides. These fillets are delicious served with rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Crab-stuffed fish fillets are a delicious and easy-to-make seafood dish. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that your family and friends will love.
