Cooking Instructions
Put 2 tablespoons (28 g) of the butter, the lemon juice, orange extract, and Splenda in a slow cooker.
Cover the slow cooker, set it to low, and let it heat while you fix your flounder rolls.
Put the almonds in a food processor with the S-blade in place and grind them to a cornmeal consistency.
Melt 1 tablespoon (14 g) of butter in a medium-size heavy skillet and add the ground almonds.
Stir the almonds over medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes or until they smell toasty.
Transfer them to a bowl.
Now melt the final tablespoon (14 g) of butter in the skillet and saute the onion and garlic over medium-low heat until the onion is just turning translucent.
Add them to the almonds and stir them in.
Now stir in the mustard, soy sauce, and 2 tablespoons (7.
6 g) of the parsley.
Lay the flounder fillets on a big plate and divide the almond mixture between them.
Spread it over the fillets and then roll each one up and fasten it with a toothpick.
Take the lid off the slow cooker and stir the sauce.
Place the flounder rolls in the sauce and spoon the sauce over them.
Re-cover the pot and let the rolls cook for 1 hour.
When they're done, spoon the sauce over the rolls and sprinkle the remaining parsley over them to serve.
