Baked Stuffed Scrod

The cuisine of Massachusetts features an abundance of fresh fish. The state’s Cape Cod region is also regarded as one of the nation’s best fishing spots. With its opportune geographical location, many innovative seafood recipes originate in the state. In this recipe, scrod— a light whitefish—gets an elegant treatment, stuffed with a scallop mixture and topped with salty prosciutto.
