CHEF JOHN'S CRAB-STUFFED SOLE
There is nothing exciting about sole. It's cheap, easy to find, has a mild, unremarkable flavor, and that's about it. Which means it's the perfect candidate for jazzing up by stuffing with crab. Serve with asparagus and lemon.

STUFFED SOLE FILLETS WITH CRAB AND GRAPES
Steps:
- In medium bowl combine crabmeat, celery, green onions, bell pepper, grapes, mayonnaise, "Old Bay" seasoning and 1/4 cup breadcrumbs. Stir until combined. Place sole fillets on cutting board. Divide stuffing between fillets and form stuffing into 1/2 inch thick patties in the center of each fillet. Fold fillet around stuffing, so that the ends of the fillet just meet. You should have a bundle that looks like a fish-wrapped crab cake. Dredge each bundle in remaining breadcrumbs and pat lightly to adhere crumbs. In non-stick frying pan heat butter and olive oil over medium-low heat. Place fillets in pan and cover. Cook about 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Top with Lemon-Grape Butter Sauce.
- To prepare sauce: In small saucepan combine chicken broth, lemon zest, lemon juice, grapes, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook 2 minutes to reduce slightly. In small bowl combine flour and water and stir until smooth. Stir into sauce over heat and whisk until smooth and thickened. Turn off heat, add butter and whisk again until smooth.
OVEN BAKED CRABMEAT STUFFED SOLE WITH MEUNIERE SAUCE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper, green onion, celery, and 1 teaspoon of minced garlic. Saute until softened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly. In a medium bowl, combine cooled vegetables, crabmeat, and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Season crab mixture with salt and white pepper, to taste.
- Season sole fillets with salt and pepper on both sides. Spoon crabmeat mixture down the center of the fillets and roll lengthwise into bundles. Using toothpicks, secure the ends so that the fillets won't unwrap during baking. Place sole fillet bundles, seam-side down, in a lightly greased 9-inch square baking dish. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter begins to foam, add the parsley, garlic, lemon juice, and Worcestershire. Cook for 2 minutes until slightly reduced. Add the cream and cook, whisking, for 15 seconds. Season with salt and cayenne. Turn heat down to low and whisk in the remaining butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, adding each piece before the previous one has been completely incorporated. Continue until all the butter is incorporated and the sauce coats the back of a spoon. Immediately remove the pan from the heat to prevent the sauce from getting too hot and breaking.
- Pour warm meuniere sauce over crabmeat stuffed sole and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. In a small bowl, mash the butter with the tarragon, crabmeat and zest, and season. Make a few deep slashes across the fillets on both sides of the sole, then place the fish, dark-skin up, in a large roasting tin. Season, then stuff the crab butter into the cuts, spreading any remaining butter on top. Lay a few lemon slices over the fish, then pour over the wine.
- Bake for 15-20 mins, depending on the size of the fish - the flesh should flake away easily from the bone when gently pushed with a knife.
- Carefully remove the fish from the tin, place on a warm plate or platter and cover with foil while you make the sauce. Set the tin over a low heat, add 2 tbsp water and bring to the boil. Let the sauce bubble for a few mins, then stir in the capers and cream. Pour the sauce over the fish and serve with steamed potatoes and a green salad.

- Choose fresh sole fillets: Fresh sole fillets should be firm to the touch and have a mild, slightly sweet smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
- Stuff the sole fillets generously: Don't be shy with the crab stuffing! The more stuffing you use, the more flavorful the sole fillets will be.
- Cook the sole fillets until they are just cooked through: Overcooked sole fillets will be tough and dry. Cook them just until they are opaque and flaky, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Serve the sole fillets immediately with fresh mint sauce: The fresh mint sauce is the perfect complement to the delicate flavor of the sole fillets. Serve it immediately, while the sauce is still fresh and bright.
