Healthy Fact of the Day

Sole got its name from its resemblance to a sandal sole. In Latin, the fish is called "solea," meaning "sandal."

Ingredients

 

  • 4 sole fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 8 oz lump crabmeat, picked over for shells
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
  • Salt and white pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • Lemon wedges for serving

 

For the sauce:

  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp butter

 

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. In a bowl, gently mix crabmeat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, parsley, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper.

  3. Lay sole fillets flat and divide the crab mixture among them.

  4. Carefully roll up each fillet and secure with toothpicks.

  5. Place rolls seam-side down in a greased baking dish.

  6. Brush with melted butter and bake for 20-25 minutes until fish flakes easily.

  7. For the sauce, simmer white wine in a small saucepan until reduced by half. Add cream and simmer until thickened. Whisk in butter off heat.

  8. Remove toothpicks from fish rolls and serve with sauce and lemon wedges.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
