**Sole Judic: A Classic French Dish with a Modern Twist**
Sole Judic is a classic French dish that combines the delicate flavor of sole fillets with a rich and flavorful sauce. The dish is typically made with sole fillets wrapped in lettuce leaves and baked in a flavorful broth. In this article, we present two variations of Sole Judic: the classic recipe and a modern interpretation that uses parchment paper instead of lettuce leaves. Both recipes result in a tender, flaky fish dish with a delicious sauce. We also include a vegetarian version of the dish that uses tofu instead of sole fillets. Whether you're a fan of classic French cuisine or looking for a modern take on a timeless dish, our Sole Judic recipes have something for everyone.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat the butter and oil. Add the onion, zucchini, and mushrooms. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until the vegetables are softened and lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Add the scallops, shrimp and seafood seasoning and cook, stirring, until the seafood is just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Add the cracker crumbs and season to taste with salt and pepper. (The stuffing can be made up to 1 day ahead and refrigerated. Leftover stuffing can be frozen. Bring to room temperature or take the chill off in the microwave before stuffing the fish.)
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Brush a large glass baking dish generously with melted butter.
- Season the fish fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. Arrange 4 of the fillets in the baking dish. Cover with stuffing, pressing it in to make an even layer, and top with the remaining fillets. If some of the seafood stuffing spills out into the dish, that's fine. Brush the fish with melted butter.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the fish is opaque in its thickest part and the stuffing is heated through, 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. Garnish with lemon wedges for squeezing over the fish.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Remove the lettuce leaves from the core and drop them into a large quantity of boiling water. Let simmer about two minutes, drain in a colander and let cold water run over the leaves until they are thoroughly chilled. Drain well.
- Open up the leaves on a flat surface.
- Sprinkle the fillets with salt and pepper. Fold the fillets into thirds to make flat packets. Place each packet on an opened lettuce leaf. Cover with a second lettuce leaf and fold the edges of the leaves up and over to enclose the fish.
- Rub a baking dish large enough to hold the fish in one layer with two tablespoons of the butter. Sprinkle the bottom with shallots. Arrange the lettuce-wrapped packages in the dish and pour in the wine. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bring the wine to a boil on top of the stove.
- Place in the oven and bake 10 minutes.
- Pour the liquid from the baking dish into a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cook down over high heat to about one-third cup. Add the cream, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil.
- Meanwhile transfer the packages to a serving dish and keep warm. As liquid accumulates around the packages, pour it into the sauce. Cook the sauce over high heat, stirring often, until reduced to slightly less than one cup. Swirl in the remaining three tablespoons of butter and the lemon juice. Heat briefly and pour the sauce over the fish packages. If desired, strain the sauce before reheating and pouring over the fish packages.

Tips:
- Choose the right sole fillets: Look for firm and plump fillets with a mild, slightly sweet flavor. Avoid fillets that are thin, discolored, or have a strong fishy odor.
- Prepare the lettuce leaves: Blanch the lettuce leaves in boiling water for a few seconds to soften them and make them pliable. This will help prevent them from tearing when you wrap the sole fillets.
- Season the sole fillets: Season the sole fillets with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices or herbs. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a drizzle of olive oil.
- Wrap the sole fillets in lettuce: Place a sole fillet on a lettuce leaf and fold the leaf over to enclose the fillet. Secure the lettuce leaf with a toothpick or kitchen twine.
- Bake the sole fillets: Place the wrapped sole fillets in a baking dish and bake them in a preheated oven until the fish is cooked through. The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fillets, but it should take about 10-12 minutes.
- Serve the sole fillets: Serve the baked sole fillets immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
