• In a medium size bowl, combine the first 8 ingredients. Lay out the fish slices and spread the stuffing mixture evenly over them. Drizzle with approximately 2 tablespoons olive oil. Roll each fish slice so it resembles a cigar, and secure it with a toothpick or a skewer or tie it with string. Dredge the rolls in flour. In a frying pan large enough to hold the fish comfortably, heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil until hot and brown the rolls lightly, turning them one or twice. This should take 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully pour the marinara sauce all over the fish rolls and simmer gently, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the fish just flakes when tested with a fork. Turn once during the cooking in the sauce. Serve and Enjoy!
