Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, chopped fine
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 stalks celery, chopped fine
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped fine
4 ounces shrimp, chopped fine (1/2 cup)
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning, to taste or 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
6 ounces lump crabmeat (or more if desired)
3 -4 tablespoons Italian seasoned breadcrumbs, more as needed
1 lb flounder (8 large fillets)
4 tablespoons butter, melted
3 tablespoons lemon juice
kosher salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
2 teaspoons paprika
1 lemon, cut into wedges for garnish

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400°F In a sauté pan, heat the olive oil and butter. Add the onions, garlic, celery, and peppers. Sauté for 2 minutes, or until the vegetables are wilted.
Add the shrimp and season with salt and Old Bay (to taste). Sauté for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and place mixture into a bowl. Gently stir in the crabmeat, then the bread crumbs a little at a time, adding more as needed to gently bind. Set aside to cool.
Place equal amounts of filling onto each fillet and roll up. (alternatively, you can place one fillet on the baking sheet, place filling atop the fillet, then place another on top, off to the side, to resemble a pocket of stuffing).
Place the fish on a baking dish (seam side down if rolled). Drizzle the fish with the butter and sprinkle with lemon juice. Sprinkle top of fish with salt, black pepper and paprika.
Place the pan in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until fish is cooked thru. Remove the fish from the oven and serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:

Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
Choose the Right Flounder: Look for flounder fillets that are firm and have a mild, slightly sweet flavor. Avoid fillets that are thin or have a strong odor.
Prepare the Shrimp Stuffing: Make sure the shrimp is cooked through before adding it to the stuffing. You can also add other ingredients to the stuffing, such as bread crumbs, herbs, and spices, to taste.
Stuff the Flounder: Be careful not to overstuff the flounder, as this can make it difficult to cook evenly. You should also make sure that the stuffing is evenly distributed throughout the fish.
Bake the Flounder: Bake the flounder in a preheated oven until it is cooked through. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of the fillets.
Serve Immediately: Flounder is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can garnish it with fresh herbs or lemon wedges before serving.
