How to Make Stuffed Tilapia Sole With Low Fat Parsley Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.
  3. Sauté the chopped onion until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the onion and spinach mixture onto each tilapia or sole fillet. Roll up the fillets and secure with a toothpick if needed.
  5. Place the stuffed fillets in a baking dish that fits them snugly.
  6. Pour the chicken broth over the fillets.
  7. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the fish is flaky and cooked through.
  8. While the fish is baking, prepare the sauce: In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until small bubbles appear around the edges.
  9. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of cold water to form a slurry. Slowly whisk the slurry into the warm milk, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens.
  10. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley and freshly ground black pepper.
  11. Once the fish is cooked, remove from the oven and carefully remove the toothpicks (if used).
  12. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the parsley sauce over each fillet.
  13. Serve immediately and enjoy!
