Learn How to Stuff a Fish Like a Pro!

When stuffing a fish, there are a few things to keep in mind. The first is the type of fish you are using. You will want to use a firmer fish for stuffing, like trout, cod, or salmon. You can also use a shellfish like lobster or crab.

The next thing to consider is what you are going to put in the stuffing. For savory stuffing, you can use vegetables like onion, celery, and bell peppers. For seafood stuffing, you can use shrimp, scallops, and crabmeat. And for sweet stuffing, you can use raisins, dried apricots, and currants.

Once you have decided on the ingredients for your stuffing, it's time to get started! To prepare the fish, rinse it under cold water and dry it off with a paper towel. Cut a small slit along the backbone on the underside of the fish and carefully remove it (You will not need this for stuffed shellfish). If your fish has scales, scale it now using a sharp knife or kitchen shears (If your fish does not have scales, this is not necessary).

Now it's time to make the stuffing! In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients and mix well. Stuff the stuffing into the cavity of the fish until full (you may have some leftover). If desired, secure shut with toothpicks.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and place your stuffed fish on a baking sheet. Bake for about 30 minutes or until cooked through. Serve immediately with your favorite side dish!
