    If you are pining for spring when more fresh wild fish comes into season, make use of a little seafood gem called fillet of sole. Sole is always available and is more economical than most other fresh seafood. But what do you do with those thin, flat little fillets? Stuff, roll and bake for a delicious dinner of mushroom stuffed sole.

    Mushrooms Duxelles

    A few weeks ago I posted a recipe for an easy, French-inspired mushroom mix call duxelles. It’s simply finely chopped mushrooms cooked in a little butter with some shallot, garlic and thyme. Over the holidays I used it an an appetizer spread, and stirred it into risotto and quinoa. With the leftovers, I started making this stuffed sole.

    Stuffed Sole with Mushroom Filing

    Start by making your mushroom filling. Use the recipe here. You can make a half batch of the recipe if you prefer with 8 ounces of mushrooms. Chop the mushrooms in a food processor, sauté in butter with shallots, garlic and herbs. Then cool to around room temperature or a little warmer.

    Lay the sole fillets smooth side down. Place about 1 ½ tablespoons of the mushroom filling on the fillet. Starting from one end, roll into a neat little package.

    Place the rolled fillets into a small baking dish. Pour a little white wine (just a ¼ cup) over the top and squeeze on some fresh lemon juice. Bake for about 12-15 minutes at 400°. Baking time will depend on how thin your fillets are and how thick the rolls are. You want to bake them until the fish is cooked and the filling inside is hot. The safe way to tell when they are done is to use a digital thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 145°.

    Cooking with Wine Tip

    When you cook with wine, do not buy the stuff called cooking wine. It’s terrible! It is often made with poor quality wine, might have additives and is usually near the vinegar, so that should give you a clue. Instead, buy the small airline sized bottles. They come in 4-packs at the grocery store and are inexpensive but good quality. They are a great size for when you need just a little wine in a recipe, like this ¼ of a cup. What you don’t use, screw the cap back on and store in the refrigerator. You don’t have to open a large bottle. If you do not use wine at all, mix water and lemon juice together.

    Mushroom Stuffed Sole

    Sally Cameron
    Thin fillets of sole are easy to roll around a savory mushroom filling (which can be made ahead to save time) and baked for an easy but elegant dinner. Top with a squeeze of fresh lemon and chopped fresh herbs for color. If you do not cook with wine, use half lemon juice and half water or fish broth.

    Ingredients
      

    • A half recipe of Mushrooms Duxelles 
    • 12 ounces small thin fillets of sole
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil divided use
    • ¼ cup dry white wine
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • Half of a lemon
    • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley for garnish optional

    Instructions
     

    • Pre-heat the oven to 400°. While oven is heating, place sole fillets smooth side down on a cutting board. Drizzle half of the olive oil over the fillets. Season with a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
    • Place approximately 1 ½ tablespoons of the mushroom filling on one end of each fillet, spread it out, then roll the fillets. Place rolls, seam side down, in a small baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick or drizzled with a little olive oil.  Pour wine into the dish, drizzle fillets with remaining olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover dish with foil.
    • Bake approximately 12-15 minutes. Timing will depend on your ovens and how thick the fillets are. To test for doneness, use a digital thermometer. The stuffed fillets should reach 145° internally. To serve, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top and sprinkle with parsley.

    Notes

    If you have made your mushroom filing ahead of time and it is refrigerated, bring it to room temperature before stuffing the fillets. You could also warm it in the microwave.

      Apologies if I am not reading well but, I don't see a specific recipe for the mushroom mixture. Just use half the mushrooms and garlic and shallots. This looks yummy though and I shall make it up with the directions given.

        Hi Kath. The mushroom recipe is called Duxelles. If you look for the green text in paragraphs 2 and 3 you should see it. Click and it is a link to the recipe. It's good in many ways besides stuffed into the sole filets. https://afoodcentriclife.com/mushrooms-duxelles/
