Baked Stuffed Eggplant with Fish
A delicious and healthy recipe for baked stuffed eggplant with fish.
Ingredients
- 2 large eggplants
- 1 pound fish fillets
- 1 cup cooked rice
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cut each eggplant in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1/4-inch border. Chop the eggplant flesh and set aside.
- Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the fish fillets until opaque and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and flake the fish into small pieces.
- In the same skillet, heat another tablespoon of olive oil. Add the chopped eggplant flesh, onion, and garlic. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- In a bowl, combine the cooked rice, flaked fish, cooked vegetables, breadcrumbs, parsley, and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Stuff each eggplant half with the rice and fish mixture. Place the stuffed eggplants in a baking dish and drizzle with olive oil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggplants are tender and the tops are golden brown.
- Serve the baked stuffed eggplants as a main course or as a side dish. Enjoy!
