Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 tbsp cooking oil; 3 cups fresh spinach; 1 tbsp minced garlic; 4 oz cream cheese, softened; 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese; 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning, divided; 1/2 tsp onion powder; 1/2 tsp all-purpose seasoning; 1.5 lbs salmon fillet, skin on; black pepper, to taste; 2 tbsp mayonnaise or softened butter; 1 medium zucchini, sliced; 1/2 red onion, sliced

1

Heat cooking oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add fresh spinach and minced garlic, and sauté until the spinach is fully wilted.

2

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sautéed spinach mixture, and shredded Parmesan cheese.

3

Season the filling with half of the Old Bay seasoning, onion powder, and all-purpose seasoning. Mix thoroughly until everything is well combined.

4

Cut the salmon fillet into 4 equal portions. Carefully slice a pocket into the side of each salmon portion, being sure not to cut all the way through.

5

Generously stuff each salmon pocket with the creamy spinach filling.

6

Season the top of the stuffed salmon with the remaining Old Bay seasoning and black pepper.

7

Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise or softened butter over the top of each salmon fillet.

8

Place the salmon fillets in a hot skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and golden brown.

9

Optionally, sauté sliced zucchini and red onion in a separate pan to serve as a side.

10

Plate the stuffed salmon with the sautéed vegetables and serve immediately.
