Time 1h5m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus extra for the sweat and for seasoning fillets
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (10-ounce package) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 lemon, zested
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus extra for seasoning fillets
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup white wine
10 ounces grated Cheddar
1 1/2 to 2 pounds flounder fillets
3 cups leftover cooked rice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium saute pan over low heat, melt the butter; add the onion and a pinch of salt and sweat until translucent. Add the garlic and continue to cook for another minute. Add the spinach and lemon zest and cook until just heated through. Season with the salt and pepper, add the parsley, and stir to combine. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
  • Place the heavy cream and wine into a saucepan over medium heat. Once the mixture begins to simmer, gradually add the cheese and stir until melted. Set aside and keep warm.
  • If the fillets are large, cut in half. Season each filet on both sides with salt and pepper. Divide the spinach mixture evenly among the fillets and roll the fish around the mixture. Place the rice into a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish and spread evenly. Place each roll on top of the rice, seam side down. Pour over the cheese sauce and place in the oven for 25 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

1 c cheddar cheese, shredded

1/2 c of dry stuffing mix like stove top
2 Tbsp kraft cooking cream or melted cream cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
A COUPLE pinch chicken bouillon granules

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. Look for firm, plump scallops and flounder fillets with no signs of discoloration or spoilage.
  • Don't overcook the fish: Flounder is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Use a light hand with the bread crumbs: The bread crumbs are used to bind the stuffing together, so you don't need to use a lot of them. Too much bread crumbs will make the stuffing dry and heavy.
  • Season the stuffing generously: The stuffing is the star of the show, so don't be afraid to season it well. Use a combination of herbs, spices, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Let the dish rest before serving: This allows the flavors to meld and the fish to finish cooking. Tent the dish with foil and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Baked flounder with scallop stuffing is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The flounder is delicate and flaky, and the scallop stuffing is rich and flavorful. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
