Note

Many fish markets sell sole pre-stuffed with salmon. If unavailable, you can create the stuffing by rolling a piece of fresh salmon (about 1-inch in diameter and 4-inches long) inside a small sole fillet. Fasten each roll securely with a toothpick before cooking.

You can substitute the salmon stuffing with shrimp, clams, scallops, or crabmeat for a variation. It is advisable to roll the sole fillets even if they are not stuffed to help them hold their shape during cooking.

Ensure all cookware used in the microwave is labeled as microwave-safe and non-metallic. Adjust cooking times slightly based on the wattage of your microwave oven.
