Seafood Rollatini
I bet Seafood and Rollatini are two words you never thought would go together. Well here at Marvelous Munch they do! Our Seafood Rollatini is anything but traditional, we do not doubt that. But once you take a bite into this dish you will be wondering how you’ve never thought to make this before. We kept the traditional ricotta filling and rolled this cod up just like you would if you were making Eggplant Rollatini. The sauce is where the big change comes in. With fish, a heavy tomato sauce just does not seem natural. Instead a light, buttery, lemon sauce is what you crave for the fish to soak in. We made this sauce with all those ingredients and more, and by more, we mean with wine.
From our kitchen to yours, cheers!
Our Date Night Salmon with White Wine Butter Sauce is very similar if you’re not craving all the cheese from this dish.

Recipe details
Ingredients
- 4 thin slices of white fish: tilapia, cod, or flounder
White Wine Sauce
- 6 tbsp butter
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ½ cup white wine
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
Rollatini Filling
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 cup hand torn spinach
- ½ cup parmesan cheese
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°
- In a sauce pot melt butter and add garlic
- Once garlic becomes fragrant pour in white wine and lemon juice
- Add salt and pepper and let simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes or until the wine has burned off enough
- In a medium size bowl mix together the rollatini filling ingredients until a nice creamy filling is created
- Lay each of your fish slices on a piece of wax paper or cutting board and pat dry
- Salt and pepper the fish on both sides and spoon filling on the fish
- Spread the filling out on the fish to create ½ inch thick layer of rollatini filling on top
- Spoon a little bit of the white wine sauce into a medium size oven safe pan. Just enough to coat the bottom so the fish doesn't stick
- Very loosely roll the fish up to create a pinwheel. Carefully keep the pinwheel closed with a toothpick and place in the oven safe pan
- Once all of the pinwheeled fish is sitting in the pan, pour the remaining white wine sauce over each of the pieces of fish. Make sure to coat well
- Bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until internal fish temperature reaches 145°
- Remove from the oven and serve. Spoon additional white wine sauce on top of the fish for best flavor
