Here is a recipe from Food TV that sounds good


Crab stuffed Flounder


I really like Costco's canned crab meat, there is hardly any cartiledge to pick through. The meat tends to be very clean.

You may want to check epicurious.com and do a search. For some reason I am having problems with the site today. Also, on epicurious is a great crab cake appetizer that is pretty easy. It is called crab cakes over baby greens with a lemon vinegarette. It is yummy and it would be a nice start to your stuffed flounder and would use up the remaining crab meat. If you put in the search field crab cakes it should come up.

Good Luck!

I have used this recipe before and it was good. The only thing I do differently is used filet of sole and wrap it around the stuffing. This recipe made more stuffing than I needed.

Stuffed Flounder

1 lb large shrimp
½ lb crabmeat
1 large flounder
2 cups bread crumbs
½ lb butter
1 cup onion
1 cup celery
2 eggs
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 pimento
salt
pepper

In 1 quart of boiling water, boil shrimp (15 mins). Remove shrimp and keep stock.

Cover broiler pan with aluminum foil. Place flounder in pan and create cavity.

In bowl, sprinkle stock (shrimp water) over bread crumbs until soft (not soggy).

Melt butter in pan. Add onions and celery. Cook until wilted.

Add eggs, shrimp, crab, parsley, salt and pepper to bread crumbs.

Fill flounder cavity with stuffing. And place remaining stuffing around the flounder.

Cover with foil. Bake for 40 minutes at 350°. Open foil and brown.
