If using a whole fish, open it up and press the stuffing over one side. Fold the other side over and secure with toothpicks if necessary. If using two fillets, press the stuffing over the flesh of one fillet and place the second over the stuffing. And again, secure with a few toothpicks.

Butter an appropriate size baking dish and place the fish in. Generously sprinkle the top side with the paprika.
