Crab Stuffed Salmon

Step 1

Prep. Preheat oven to 425˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Prepare the salmon. Arrange the salmon fillets on top of parchment paper and season them with salt and pepper. Cut a ¼-inch-deep pocket in the center of each salmon fillet. Set aside.

Step 3

Make the crabmeat mixture. In a mixing bowl, combine chopped crabmeat, cream cheese, bell peppers, garlic, egg, parsley, and old bay seasoning; mix and stir until thoroughly combined.

Step 4

Add the crabmeat mixture to the salmon. Stuff the salmon fillets with the prepared crabmeat filling. Sprinkle breadcrumbs on top of fillets and lightly spray the tops with cooking oil.

Step 5

Cook. Transfer the stuffed salmon to the oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and the internal temperature registers at 130˚F.

Step 6

Finish and serve. Remove from oven. Garnish the crab stuffed salmon with parsley, and serve.
