Ingredients

  • 4 filets white fish fillets
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Pat the 4 fish fillets dry and season both sides with the 0.5 tsp salt.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, mix the 1 cup mozzarella and 0.25 cup chopped parsley. Spoon this mixture onto the center of each fillet, then fold the fillets over to enclose the filling.

  3. 3

    Place the stuffed fillets in a baking dish. Top each with the 0.5 cup breadcrumbs and drizzle with the 2 tbsp olive oil.

  4. 4

    Bake until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the breadcrumbs are golden, about 15-20 minutes. Serve hot.
