Christmas Fish

This is my new favorite fish recipe. It is so good and pretty easy too.

Ingredients

¾ pound tilapia, sole or halibut fillets

4 tablespoon butter, melted

½ cup plus 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan Cheese, divided

2 cloves of garlic, minced

1 teaspoon grated lime zest

1 ½ teaspoon dried dill

¼ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon pepper

1 carrot, peeled and cut into small pieces

1 celery stark, cut into small pieces

¼ teaspoon paprika

Pat the fillets dry and spread them on a baking sheet.

Combine the butter, 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese, garlic, lime zest, dill, salt, pepper, carrot and celery in a bowl. Spread mixture across each fillet, roll the fillet, and secure with a toothpick.

Place the fillets, rolled sides down, in the baking dish. Sprinkle the tops of each fillet with paprika and the remaining 2 T Parmesan cheese. Bake on the top rack for 30 minutes.

When done, turn the oven to broil and place the fish under the boiler for 2 to3 minutes to brown the tops.

Yield: 3-4 servings
