Ingredients

• 4 pieces flounder fillets
• 8 ounces lump crabmeat
• 4 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
• 3 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 as needed cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the crabmeat, Greek yogurt, crumbled blue cheese, panko breadcrumbs, lemon juice, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.

Step 3

Rinse the flounder fillets and pat them dry with paper towels. Lay each fillet flat with the skin side facing down.

Step 4

Spoon an even portion of the crabmeat mixture onto the center of each fillet. Fold the edges of the fillets over the filling to create a tight wrap, ensuring the crabmeat is enclosed.

Step 5

Place the stuffed fillets seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Drizzle olive oil lightly over the top of the fillets to promote browning.

Step 6

Bake the stuffed flounder in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 7

Optional: For a golden-brown crust, switch the oven to broil for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, but keep a close eye to avoid burning.

Step 8

Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the stuffed flounder rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm with a fresh side salad or steamed vegetables, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
