Preparation

Step 1

Haddock, lobster, and scallops combine in a creamy baked casserole from North Rustico Harbour's

skinless haddock, pin bones removed, cut into 1" pieces

1. Heat oven to 400°. Melt 4 tbsp. butter in a 4-qt. saucepan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, garlic, celery, bell pepper, and onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 8 minutes. Add wine; cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add flour; cook, stirring until smooth, for 2 minutes. Whisk in milk and cream; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; cook until slightly thickened, 3–4 minutes. Stir in lobster, haddock, scallops, lemon juice, mustard, salt, and pepper. Divide mixture evenly among six 6-oz. ramekins; place ramekins on a baking sheet and set aside.

2. Mix bread crumbs, cheese, and paprika in a bowl; sprinkle mixture evenly over each ramekin and dot with remaining butter. Bake until lightly browned and bubbling in the center, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley, if you like.

This was easy to make and very tasty. Used two 8oz and 4 4oz. Whatever you have.
