Ingredients:

4 halibut fillets (about 6 ounces each)
1 cup lump crab meat
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 garlic clove, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil for cooking

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the lump crab meat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
Lay the halibut fillets flat on a cutting board or a clean surface. Spread a generous amount of the crab mixture evenly over each fillet.
Starting from one end, roll each fillet up tightly, securing it with toothpicks if necessary. Place the stuffed halibut rolls in a baking dish.
Drizzle a little olive oil over the stuffed halibut rolls to prevent them from sticking to the baking dish.
Bake the stuffed halibut in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the toothpicks if used and serve the crab stuffed halibut hot. You can garnish it with additional chopped parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice if desired.

Enjoy your delicious crab stuffed halibut! It pairs well with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.

Use caution when handling toothpicks, if you choose to secure the rolls, to avoid any accidents while eating.
Ensure that the crab meat is fresh and properly cooked before using it in the stuffing.
Be mindful of the oven temperature and cooking time to prevent overcooking the fish.
