This stuffed sole recipe turns ordinary, mild sole fillets into something remarkable. Sole is cheap and easy to find, so it's the perfect candidate for this jazzed-up crab stuffing. Serve with lemon wedges and asparagus on the side.

Ingredients

cooking spray
4 ounces fresh Dungeness crabmeat
1 tablespoon finely diced poblano pepper
1 tablespoon panko bread crumbs
2 teaspoons minced green onion
½ teaspoon lemon juice
salt and ground black pepper to taste
⅓ cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons lemon zest
1 pinch cayenne pepper
6 (2 ounce) sole fillets
salt to taste
⅛ teaspoon paprika, or to taste

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray.
Mix crabmeat, poblano pepper, panko, green onion, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until well combined. Stir mayonnaise, lemon zest, and cayenne pepper together in a second bowl.
Place sole fillets onto a work surface with the flat sides facing up. Season with salt. Divide crab mixture between fillets. Roll fillets around filling and place into the prepared baking dish, seam-side down.
Spread 1/2 of the mayonnaise mixture over the sides and tops of each fillet. Spoon remaining mayonnaise mixture into a piping bag, then pipe it in a zigzag over fillets. Sprinkle paprika over top.
Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork and topping is browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
