Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 stalks Celery, finely diced
• 2 cups Breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.25 cup Chicken broth (or seafood stock for shrimp)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil (optional, for basting)

Directions

Step 1

Melt the unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and diced celery to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and fragrant.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the breadcrumbs. Let them lightly toast in the skillet for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.

Step 4

Mix in the fresh parsley, thyme, and lemon zest. Stir until evenly combined.

Step 5

Add the grated Parmesan cheese and chicken broth (or seafood stock). Stir until the mixture holds together but isn't too wet. Adjust the broth quantity if necessary.

Step 6

Season the stuffing with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

Step 7

Use the stuffing immediately to fill fish fillets, de-veined shrimp, or hollowed-out mushrooms, depending on your preferred dish.

Step 8

If baking, brush the stuffed items lightly with olive oil, and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Serve hot and enjoy this flavorful dish!
