Stuffed Dover Sole For Two features rolled fillets filled with rice, cheese and broccoli, covered with a lemon butter sauce and baked. Yummy!
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease/spray a medium baking dish on the bottom; set aside.
In a small bowl, stir lemon juice, melted butter, salt and pepper until combined. Set bowl aside.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, combine broccoli, rice, cheddar cheese, salt, pepper, and HALF (½)Tablespoon (only) of the lemon/butter sauce; stir until combined. TIP: If possible, pre-cook broccoli and rice early in the day (or the night before), for less prep time.
Lay fish fillets out on paper towels; blot fish on both sides, to remove excess moisture. Divide rice/broccoli/cheese mixture evenly down the middle of each fillet, covering length of the fish. It should be about ½ cup filling per fillet.
Carefully roll up each fillet starting with the short end. Place in prepared baking dish seam side DOWN. If any stuffing falls out while transferring the fillets, just pick it up and put it back inside! Place fish roll-ups side by side in dish, because they will support and hold together better while baking. Evenly divide and pour (or brush) remaining butter mixture over the top of the fish.
Bake (uncovered) at 350°F for 20-25 minutes OR until fish flakes easily with a fork. Check it at 20 minutes, then cook more, if necessary (depending on thickness of the fish). The fish will still be pale/opaque once fully cooked. Remove from the oven. Lightly sprinkle the top of each piece with paprika.
Use a spatula to transfer fish to serving plates. Serve immediately, with lemon slices on the side, and enjoy!
