1

Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Rinse the flounder fillets and pat them dry with paper towels. Lightly grease a shallow baking dish.
2

Mix the crabmeat, crushed saltines, bell pepper, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and white pepper in a medium bowl. In a small bowl, combine the egg white with 1 tablespoon mayonnaise; stir this into the crabmeat mixture.
3

Brush the fillets with the melted butter; place them in the prepared baking dish. Spoon the crabmeat mixture over the fillets and drizzle with any remaining butter. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
4

Meanwhile, prepare the topping: lightly beat the egg yolk in a small bowl. Stir in 5 tablespoons of mayonnaise. Remove the fish from the oven and spread this mixture over the stuffing; sprinkle with parsley and paprika.

Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) and bake until golden and bubbly, about 5 or 6 minutes.
