Crab-Stuffed Flounder Rolls with Shrimp and Cockles image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 small bulb fennel, cored and finely chopped, plus 2 tablespoons chopped fronds
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2/3 cup dry white wine
2 28-ounce cans diced tomatoes
1 8-ounce bottle clam juice
1 pound jumbo lump crab meat, picked over
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Kosher salt
4 large flounder fillets (about 10 ounces each), halved lengthwise, or 8 small flounder fillets (4 to 5 ounces each)
Freshly ground pepper
2 pounds cockles, scrubbed
1 pound rock shrimp

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, fennel bulb and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but not browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the oregano and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Increase the heat to medium high, add the wine and cook until it almost completely evaporates, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and clam juice and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are tender and the broth is slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss the crab with the lemon zest, 1 tablespoon fennel fronds and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Season the flounder with salt and pepper. Place a packed 1/4 cup of the crab mixture about 2 inches from the widest end of each fillet and tightly roll the fish around the crab; insert a toothpick or small skewer through the center to secure.
  • Gently nestle the flounder rolls in the simmering tomato broth. Cover and cook until opaque, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer the rolls to a rimmed platter with a slotted spoon and remove the toothpicks; tent with foil and set aside.
  • Add the cockles to the simmering tomato broth, cover and cook until they just start opening, about 6 minutes. Stir in the shrimp and cook until just opaque and the cockles are completely open, about 2 more minutes. (Discard any unopened cockles.) Transfer the cockles, shrimp and broth to the platter with the flounder rolls and top with the remaining 1 tablespoon fennel fronds.

CRAB STUFFED FISH



Crab Stuffed Fish image

I love this dish I got it off of the T.V years ago and I make it often. I normally use a whitefish of some sort. Tilapia or Flounder are my favorites. I usually serve with rice and steamed vegetable. It's filled with flavor and is pretty easy to make. I could eat the stuffing all by it's self. A lot of times I double the stuffing but it's up to you what you think.

SHRIMP AND CRAB STUFFED FISH



Shrimp and Crab Stuffed Fish image

The original recipe uses trout, but I really like it with a nice, firm white fish like grouper or snapper. The shrimp and crabmeat stuffing should hold together loosely. It calls for 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp fine, dry bread crumbs, but I couldn't get Zaar to take that. If necessary, you can add up to 1/2 cup additional fine, dry breadcrumbs to the stuffing mixture to achieve your desired consistency.

SHRIMP AND CRAB STUFFING- FOR CHICKEN OR FISH



Shrimp and Crab Stuffing- for Chicken or Fish image

I've had this with skinless boneless chicken breasts and salmon, although I'm sure it has multiple other uses, such as stuffing whole fish or fish fillets. The whole stick of butter might not be necessary- the moistness of the stuffing depends on how much butter you use, so be sure to add it gradually.
