Savory Stuffed Shad

Shad's not in season now, but I cam across this recipe from a while back. It includes strong flavors in the sauce as well as the stuffing, but the robust flavor of shad stands up well with them.

serves 2

Ingredients:
2 shad fillets
2 small portobello mushrooms, thinly sliced
2 scallions, cut into strips lengthwise
sauce:
2 T olive oil
1 T banana chutney
1/4 t curry powder
1 t rice vinegar
salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 450.

Combine the sauce ingredients. Lightly oil a baking pan and lay out the fillets. For each fillet: open the cavity and brush generously with sauce, line with mushrooms and top with scallion strips. Close fish and brush outside lightly with sauce.

Bake in oven for 5 min., then move to broiler for 3 minutes or just browned.
