Spinach Stuffed Salmon

Another quick fish idea.  Easy enough for a Thursday night, fancy enough for a dinner party.  Eat more fish!

Spinach Stuffed Salmon















Ingredients:
  • 4 6-ounce wild salmon center-cut filets (about 1.5 pounds total)
  • 2 cups frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry (it squeezes down to about 1 cup)
  • 1/2 cup shredded parmesan
  • 1/4 cup pine nuts or chopped walnuts
  • Tastefully Simple Seasoned Salt
  • olive oil in a mister
  • lemon wedges
Directions:
  • Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Cut a hole, width-wise, into each salmon filet, leaving a 1/3-inch boarder around 3 sides, forming a pocket.  Set aside.
  • In a bowl, mix together the thawed spinach with the parmesan, pine nuts and a couple shakes of TSSS.
  • Divide the spinach mixture into 4 equal parts and stuff into each of the prepared salmon filets.
  • Spray a baking sheet with olive oil.  Place the stuffed salmon filets on the sheet, then spray the tops of each filet with more olive oil.  Sprinkle with TSSS.
  • Bake for 12 - 15 minutes until cooked through.  Squirt with lemon wedges before serving.
