A delightful main course featuring salmon fillets stuffed with a savory crab mixture, perfect for impressing family and friends.


Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 1 cup crab meat
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

  2. In a mixing bowl, combine crab meat, cream cheese, green onions, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Spoon the crab mixture evenly onto the center of each salmon fillet. Fold the sides over the filling to encase it.
