Ingredients

• Flounder fillets - 2 (about 200g each)
• Breadcrumbs - 1/2 cup (60g)
• Onion, finely chopped - 1/4 cup (40g)
• Celery, finely chopped - 1/4 cup (30g)
• Carrot, grated - 1/4 cup (30g)
• Fresh parsley, chopped - 2 tablespoons (8g)
• Fresh dill, chopped - 1 tablespoon (4g)
• Garlic, minced - 1 clove
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon (15ml)
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons (30ml)
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1/4 teaspoon
• Vegetable broth - 1/4 cup (60ml)

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrot, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the garlic, parsley, dill, salt, pepper, and paprika. Cook for another 2 minutes.
4. Remove from heat and mix in the breadcrumbs and lemon juice until well combined.
5. Place the flounder fillets on a baking dish, skin side down. Gently spoon the stuffing mixture onto each fillet, pressing down lightly to adhere.
6. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the stuffed fillets and pour the vegetable broth into the baking dish.
7. Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
8. Serve warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
