It will look great as it browns, and you want your guests to see all of that lovely crab meat!<\/li><li>Place a little water in the pan with your stuffed flounder to help keep them moist, and if you\u2019re feeling really decadent, top the stuffed flounder with a little melted butter (that\u2019s how we would have done it in the restaurant). It\u2019s definitely worth the extra effort!<\/li><li>Place the baking dish in a 350 degree preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. It\u2019s important not to let the flounder dry out, but you do want your crab imperial to be hot enough (if you have a food thermometer check its internal temperature to make sure its at least 165 degrees).<\/li><li>Serve with your favorite side dish and sit back and enjoy!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a><br>\n\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"entry-summary\">\nOne of the most popular dishes on my restaurant menu at the&hellip;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/2021\/05\/05\/restaurant-style-stuffed-flounder-recipe\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &ldquo;RESTAURANT STYLE STUFFED FLOUNDER RECIPE&rdquo;<\/span>&hellip;<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":199,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[2],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/196"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=196"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/196\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":203,"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/196\/revisions\/203"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/199"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=196"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=196"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rlhays.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=196"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
