STUFFED SALMON WITH CREAM CHEESE AND CRABMEAT

Since discovering Northwest Wild Caught Salmon earlier this year, I’ve been having fun finding different ways to prepare and enjoy this lovely fish.  I was lucky enough to pick up some nice sockeye salmon at Sam’s Club.

This week Stuffed Salmon was on the menu at home, and I decided to try something a little different with the stuffing using cream cheese in my stuffing mix.
My Stuffed Salmon is a great way to turn an ordinary night into a special occasion and is great for entertaining as it can be made up ahead of time and cooked before your guests arrive.  You may also try stuffing a whole side of salmon and roasting it for a buffet.  It will look spectacular!

I love recreating restaurant style dishes in my home and sharing them with my friends. This easy to make Stuffed Salmon with Cream Cheese and Crabmeat will wow your family and friends.

INGREDIENTS
  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 8 ounces of crabmeat drained well I used claw meat
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened use regular not whipped
  • 1 large egg whipped
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 cups baby spinach
  • 1 tablespoon roasted red peppers diced
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese or your favorite cheese
  • 1 teaspoon old bay seasoning
  • sea salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons seasoned bread crumbs

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. cook spinach in a little bit of water till fully cooked, take off heat and allow to cool
  3. When spinach is cool squeeze out all of the water from the spinach (excess water will make the stuffing loose)
  4. in a mixing bowl add in the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, egg and old bay seasoning. Whip together until well blended.
  5. fold in the spinach, roasted peppers, shredded mozzarella and crab meat (make sure crab meat has been well drained, squeezing out any excess water). Mix gently and if mixture is too loose you may add a little bread crumb to tighten it up.
  6. place salmon on baking sheet and season with salt and pepper
  7. portion stuffing out and place on top of salmon fillet, then sprinkle breadcrumbs on top.
  8. pour a little water on the baking dish to help keep the salmon moist while its cooking
  9. cook salmon at 350 degrees for 18-22 minutes. salmon should be done but not overcooked
  10. serve with your favorite sides

This particular 5-Ingredient Sheet Pan Salmon dinner was influenced by a chicken dish that my mom used to make a bit in our house. She’d take a bottle of Italian dressing and marinate some boneless, skinless chicken breasts in it overnight. They’d take on all that yummy tart and tangy flavor of the vinaigrette and absorb all those herbs too. Super easy and inexpensive! This 5 Ingredient Sheet Pan Salmon is the perfect dinner for busy weeknights! This complete seafood dinner cooks in just 30 minutes and the cleanup is easy too!  INGREDIENTS 4 salmon fillets 5- to 6-oz. each 1 pound red potatoes halved 1 pound fresh green beans trimmed 5 tablespoons Italian dressing divided 1 lemon halved Kosher salt and pepper to taste Tartar Sauce for serving (if desired) INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 400°.

Spicy cumin chicken thighs with green beans

Gambar
Quick to cook and difficult to fail, spicy cumin chicken thighs with green beans is inspired by a popular Chinese street food. An easy pan-fried dish full of flavour.  This is not a classic Chinese dish, but inspired by a popular street food I used to have back in my home province of Gansu, in China. It’s called Yang Rou Chuan In my recipe, I use both cumin powder and whole cumin seeds, the same for chilli too (both powder and flakes). This helps to maximize the fragrance of the spices, and to create an appealing finished look. If you are not accustom to very hot food, please feel free to reduce the amount of chilli powder and flakes (or use milder ones). However, I wouldn’t suggest reducing the cumin as it’s really the soul of this dish.
