Crab-Stuffed Salmon by Bake It With Love

Servings: 6Prep Time: 10 minutesCook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

• 24 oz salmon filets (6 skinless salmon filets, 4 ounces each)
• 4 oz cream cheese (softened to room temperature)
• 1 large egg
• 1 Tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tsp lemon pepper
• 1 tsp paprika (plus a pinch to sprinkle on top later)

• ½ tsp each, salt and pepper (to taste)
• 6 oz crab meat (canned, drained of water)
• 2 Tbsp panko breadcrumbs (or plain breadcrumbs)
• ½ Tbsp fresh parsley (finely chopped)
• ½ Tbsp green onion (finely chopped)
• ½ cup Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)

Directions:

1. Combine 1 large egg, 4 oz cream cheese, 1 tablespoon mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon lemon pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper in a medium mixing bowl. Whisk until well combined.
2. Incorporate 6 oz crab meat, 2 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs, ½ tablespoon green onion, and ½ tablespoon fresh parsley into the mixture. Gently fold until well combined.
3. Combine ½ cup Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper with your crab mixture. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving.
4. Set your oven to 350°F (175°C/Gas Mark 4) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

1. Dry the 24 oz salmon filets with a paper towel after rinsing them, then put them on the prepared baking sheet.
2. Slice the center of each filet with a sharp knife, leaving about half of the meat intact.
3. Spoon the mixture into the salmon filets using a small spoon, then top with the remaining mixture in the center of the filets. If desired, sprinkle additional paprika on top.
4. To achieve a great finish on the filets, broil them for a minute or two before removing them from the oven. Place the filets in the preheated oven at 350°F (175°C/Gas Mark 4) for 15 to 18 minutes.
5. Remove the dish from the oven and garnish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and parsley, if desired. Serve immediately.
