Sole Stuffed With Shrimp and Roasted Red Pepper Cream Cheese

You will love this. It is my favorite way to cook fish fillets. This makes enough to stuff about 8 good sized fillets, I usually only do 4 so I keep the rest of the stuffing in the freezer for another meal. You can easily double this and have it ready for a very quick dinner. This filling is also nice with other fish or even chicken. Prep time does not include freezing time Show more
