Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 thick, center-cut skinless fillets
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Fresh rosemary or parsley, for garnish
  • 1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
  • 1 cup lump crab meat, drained and shell-free
  • 115 g cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • ¼ cup finely chopped baby spinach
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • 250 g fettuccine or linguine (optional side)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional side)
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced (optional side)
  • 1½ cups baby spinach (optional side)
  • ½ cup heavy cream (optional side)
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella (optional side)
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese (optional side)
  • Salt & pepper (optional side)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix shrimp, crab, cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic, spinach, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir until creamy and well combined.
  2. Use a sharp knife to cut a deep pocket into each salmon fillet. Fill each pocket generously with the seafood mixture.
  3. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat and sear salmon for 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking dish and bake for 10–12 minutes, until flaky and golden on top.
  4. For the optional cheesy pasta side, cook pasta according to package directions. In a skillet, sauté garlic in olive oil, add spinach to wilt, then pour in cream. Stir in mozzarella and Parmesan until smooth. Season and toss pasta in sauce.
  5. Serve salmon warm, either on its own or over a bed of creamy spinach pasta. Garnish with rosemary or parsley and fresh lemon wedges.

Notes

  • Use light cream cheese for a softer filling.
  • Add a pinch of chili flakes for a subtle kick.
  • Perfect with a side of roasted veggies or mashed potatoes!
