About 2 cups This delicate, buttery stuffing can be used to stuff a range of seafood, from sole fillets to whole baked trout; it also makes a fine stuffing for chicken breasts or even for topping baked oysters. This recipe makes enough to stuff 4 servings, or 2 pounds fish fillets or steaks or 3 to 4 pounds whole fish. For a more decadent stuffing, add to the mixture below 1 cup cooked lobster, lump crabmeat, or drained raw oysters, finely chopped. Please read About Bread Crumb Stuffings.
