1
Prepare the Filling
In a skillet, melt half of the butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped shallots and minced garlic. Sauté until they become translucent.
2
Add Crab Meat
Gently fold in the jumbo crab meat and chopped parsley into the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Cook for 3-4 minutes until heated through, then remove from heat.
3
Stuff the Rockfish
Take each rockfish fillet and place an ample amount of the crab mixture in the center. Fold the fillets over to enclose the filling. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.

4
Sear the Fish
In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and increase the heat to medium-high. Once melted, add the stuffed rockfish fillets. Sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
5
Prepare Champagne Sauce
After searing, remove the fish and set aside. Deglaze the skillet with champagne, scraping up any bits from the bottom. Let it simmer for 5 minutes until reduced slightly.
6
Glaze the Fish
Return the rockfish to the skillet, coating it with the champagne sauce. Allow to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
