- 2 tsp. Mustard
- 2 tbsp. Light Mayo I use olive oil mayo
- 1 large egg
- 2 tsp. Old Bay
- 1/3 cup Bread Crumbs

Instructions
- Mix together crab meat, mustard, mayo, old bay, egg, and bread crumbs.8 ounces Crab Meat, 2 tsp. Mustard, 2 tbsp. Light Mayo, 1 large egg, 2 tsp. Old Bay, 1/3 cup Bread Crumbs
- Set the crab mix aside and prepare a baking sheet with a thin coating of olive oil. Place into an oven and set it to preheat to 400 degrees.
- Take out your flounder fillets and dry them well with paper towels. You want your fish to brown on the baking sheet and not steam.4 large Flounder Fillets
- When the oven is preheated, pull the baking sheet out and place your flounder fillets onto it. Lightly salt and pepper the fillets.
- Top each with 1/4 of the crab mixture. Spray the tops of the fillets with cooking spray and put into the oven for 13-18 minutes ( depends on thickness of fillet)
- Garnish with parsley, fresh lemon slices and juice and serve!
