Stuffed Pasta Shells with Fish

by Editorial Staff

Large shell pasta is also called conciglioni pasta. A delicious recipe for making conciglioni stuffed with fried fish fillets, cottage cheese, mozzarella, and green onions, baked with tomato sauce.

Ingredients

  • Large shell macaroni (conciglioni) – 24-25 pcs.
  • Fish fillet – 400 g
  • Cottage cheese – 200 g
  • Mozzarella cheese – 200 g
  • Lemon zest, finely grated – 1 teaspoon
  • Lemon juice – 1 tbsp
  • Green onions – 1 bunch
  • Tomato Pasta Sauce
  • Dried basil – 1 teaspoon
  • Salt to taste
  • Ground black pepper – to taste
  • Olive oil – for frying

Directions

  1. Boil the shell pasta (conchiglie) according to the instructions on the package. Defrost the fish fillet, dry it, then season with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Heat the olive oil well in a skillet. Place the fish fillets in the pan.
  3. Fry the fish fillets on both sides until tender (the frying time depends on the type of fish, sea fish fillets – 5 minutes on each side).
  4. Place the finished fish on a board and chop it into small pieces with a knife.
  5. Grate mozzarella cheese. In a bowl, combine the cottage cheese and half the mozzarella.
  6. Add dried basil, grated zest, and lemon juice. Finely chop the green onion.
  7. Add green onions to the cheese mass (leave part of the chopped onions for serving the finished dish), mix. Add fish pieces and stir.
  8. Preheat oven to 190 degrees. Brush the bottom of a baking dish with tomato sauce. (Note that it is a tomato sauce that is used; ketchup is not suitable here.) Fill the shells with cooked minced meat.
  9. Place the stuffed shell pasta with fish, cottage cheese, mozzarella, and green onions in a baking dish. Place the tomato sauce on top of the stuffed pasta.
  10. Sprinkle with the remaining half of the grated mozzarella. Cover with foil.
  11. Bake the shell pasta stuffed with fish in the oven for 15 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for another 5 minutes.
  12. When serving, sprinkle the stuffed conciglioni with the remaining chopped green onions.
