Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Pound fish fillets under a sheet of wax paper to ⅛-inch thickness; sprinkle with lemon juice.

  2. Step 2

    Saute shallots, garlic and mushrooms in 4 tablespoons butter until shallots are soft. Add crayfish tails or shrimp, basil, salt, cayenne, white and black pepper and cook until heated.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in half-and-half and one cup chicken stock; simmer five minutes. Thicken with enough bread crumbs for stuffing consistency.

  4. Step 4

    Divide mixture into 9 portions and place one portion on each fillet. Roll up filets like a jelly roll. Place seam side down on baking sheet with remaining chicken stock. Dot with remaining butter cut into little pieces; bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes until fish flakes.

  5. Step 5

    Serve topped with Creolaise sauce.
