Note

Drain canned mushrooms thoroughly before using to prevent the stuffing from becoming soggy.

If fresh bread is not available, you can use dry breadcrumbs, but reduce the butter slightly as they absorb moisture differently.

For a richer flavor, baste the fish with the remaining melted butter halfway through baking.

Ensure the internal temperature of the thickest part of the fish reaches 145ðF (63ðC) for safe consumption.

Serve immediately with steamed vegetables or a light salad to balance the richness of the buttery stuffing.
