Healthy Crab-Stuffed Flounder. Low Carb, No Measuring, Diabetic Friendly

I am so excited to bring you this new recipe for Healthy Crab-Stuffed Flounder.  It’s Low Carb, there’s NO measuring, and only about a ten-minute preparation.  Diabetics rejoice!  It’s good for you!  I chose Flounder for this dish because the fillets are nice and thin, so you can use two layers with the Stuffing in the middle and it cooks pretty quickly.  I used only a bit of Butter, so it’s low in fat also.

INGREDIENTS:  YIELDS 5 SERVINGS

1 LB Flounder Fillets

6 Ritz Crackers (or any variety you choose)

A handful of Sea Salt Vegetable Straws

1 Slice Low Carb Bread

1 Egg

1 Mini Sweet Pepper

2 TBSP Onion

1 Six Ounce Can Lump Crab Meat

Seasonings:  Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Salt, Pepper, Paprika

1-2 TBSP Butter

PREPARATION:

     Preheat oven to 400° F     Place a pat of Butter in an 8” x 11” glass baking dish.  Put it in the oven for a few minutes until the Butter has melted.  Remove from oven and set aside.

     In a small chopper, add Crackers, Vegetable Straws, and Low Carb Bread.  Chop until fine.  Pour into a large measuring cup and make sure you have approximately 1 ½ cups.  Chop the Mini Pepper and Onion until you have small pieces.  Add 1 Egg and process quickly until Egg is well combined with Vegetables.  Season with a little Garlic Powder, and Pepper.  Add to processed Crackers and Bread, and mix by hand.

     Add drained Lump Crab meat and mix by hand.  Stir into Cracker/Vegetable mixture.  If it seems to dry, add a smidge of Milk.  You want it moist, but not wet.

     Lay half the Flounder Fillets on top of the melted Butter.  Evenly divide the Stuffing between each Fillet.  Spread as evenly as you can. Place a second Fillet on top of each, and drizzle with melted Butter.  Season with Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Black Pepper, a little Salt, and Paprika. 

    Bake for 22 – 25 minutes or until Fish is browned and flaky.  You can serve with Lemon Wedges if you like.
