I tend to like "fishier" tasting seafood, but stuffed flounder is a favorite. From "The Lake Kitchen", it was different than the recipe I have used in the past.

- 2 Tbsp chopped parsley shopping list
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions with tops shopping list

- 1 egg, slightly beaten shopping list

- 1-1/2 cups moistened unseasoned croutons shopping list
- 1/2 cup crabmeat shopping list
- salt, pepper and cayenne pepper shopping list
- 4 medium sized flounder, washed,scaled, with heads removed.. shopping list
How to make it
- In a large skillet or saucepan, saute celery, onions, and garlic in 1/4 cup butter over low heat.
- In a large bowl, mix bread cubes, shrimp, crabmeat, parsley, and egg well.
- Season to taste with salt, black and cayenne pepper. Set aside.
- Split the thick side of the flounder lengthwise and crosswise forming a cross; loosen meat from bone to form a pocket for stuffing.
