Here is how you make Crabmeat Stuffed Flounder:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease shallow baking dish and set aside. Season crabmeat with 1 teaspoon Emeril's Essence. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Melt 2 1/2 tablespoons of butter in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add onion, celery, and bell pepper and cook until softened. Add 1 tablespoon of parsley and garlic, cook while stirring for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool. In a large bowl, combne mayonnaise, beaten egg, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce. Gently stir in panko, cooled vegetables, pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Gently fold in crabmeat, being careful not to break up the crab. Set aside. Season easch fish fillet with 1/2 teaspoon of Essence and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Place fillets skin side up on a work surface. Divide the crabmeat filling evenly among the centers of the fish fillets and, using your hands, roll the fillets up around the filling. Secure with a toothpick. Place the fillets, seam side down, in the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of cracker crumbs evenly over the fillets. Drizzle with melted butter. Bake until lightly golden brown and cooked through, about 20 minutes. Fish will flake easily when touched with a fork. We usually have filling left over and make crabcakes with the extra.
