Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Pat the 4 fish fillets dry and season both sides with the 0.5 tsp salt.

  2. Step 2

    In a small bowl, mix the 1 cup mozzarella and 0.25 cup chopped parsley. Spoon this mixture onto the center of each fillet, then fold the fillets over to enclose the filling.

  3. Step 3

    Place the stuffed fillets in a baking dish. Top each with the 0.5 cup breadcrumbs and drizzle with the 2 tbsp olive oil.

  4. Step 4

    Bake until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the breadcrumbs are golden, about 15-20 minutes. Serve hot.
