Instructions:
Instructions: Prepare paella stuffing: Cook sausage, onion, garlic, and chilies in butter in 10 inch skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until sausage is done, about
10 minutes; drain. Stir in remaining ingredients.

Heat oven to 350 F. Rub cavity of fish with lime juice; fill with paella stuffing. Close opening with skewers, lace with string. Place in large ungreased broiler pan (without rack), or in shallow roasting pan.

Mix butter and 2 tbsp lime juice. Bake fish uncovered, brushing with butter mixture occasionally, until fish flakes easily with fork, about 1 1/2 hours.

Serve with lime wedges.

A green salad would be nice with this. Honeymoon salad ("lettuce alone") is good, with a little ranch-style dressing. In the alternative, chilled cucumber spears, celery sticks, olives, and either ranch-style dressing or spinach dip would be good. Heated garlic bread (French or sourdough) comes to mind, as well.
