Shrimp Stuffing and White Fish

Posted on February 1, 2012July 24, 2021 by Lanie Fioretti

Make Shrimp Stuffing and White Fish as a main dish, or as an appetizer.  In addition to shrimp, use crab, or a combination of both.  It’s incredibly scrumptious.

I made this recipe with flounder pieces during Christmas, and served it as an appetizer.  There were no leftovers!  When I made it the other day, I used Dory fish.  Any delicate white fish would work well, or if you’re not a fan of fish, use a thinly sliced or pounded boneless chicken breast.
