Best Robalo Stuffed With Seafood Recipes

STUFFED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F and have ready a rimmed baking sheet lined with either parchment paper or aluminum foil.
• Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel. Then, working with one shrimp at a time, lay it back-side down (a.k.a. leg-side up). Use a paring knife to make a small incision down the shrimp, from the start of the tail, cutting toward the head of the shrimp. Continue doing this until the shrimp is butterflied and can lay flat. Do your best not to cut all the way through the body of the shrimp.
• Transfer the shrimp to a large bowl, drizzle with oil, sprinkle evenly with the salt and pepper, and very gently toss to coat. Transfer to the baking sheet and set aside.
• In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the crab, parmesan cheese, plain breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, green onions, beaten egg, pimiento peppers, chopped parsley, Old Bay seasoning, lemon zest, and juice. Gently, fold the mixture together until well combined.
• Add tablespoon-sized spoonfuls of the crab mixture on top of each shrimp, and bring up the tail, tucking it gently into the stuffing.
• Bake for about 16-20 minutes, or until the shrimp are completely opaque and pink in color. Allow to cool slightly, serve and enjoy!

STUFFED WHITEFISH: PESCADO BLANCO RELLENO

Knot the string, and sew the fish closed. Rub the fish with generous amounts of butter, and then roll it in bread crumbs. Wrap each fish twice over in parchment paper making sure to butter the side of the paper that will touch the fish. Wrap the fish up in the paper, firmly tying off each end with a bit of string. Repeat this procedure with each fish. Place the fish on the grill for about 15 minutes, turning fish about halfway through cooking. A rich aroma of shrimp and toasted bread will indicate when the fish is finished cooking.
