½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

⅓ cup frozen chopped spinach - thawed, drained, and squeezed dry
2 stalks scallions, white and green parts, thinly sliced
1 (3/4 pound) boneless salmon fillet
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Salmon: Opt for wild-caught salmon as it has a richer flavor and a firmer texture compared to farmed salmon.
  • Properly Clean the Salmon: Ensure the salmon is thoroughly cleaned, removing any scales or pin bones. Pat it dry with paper towels to prevent excess moisture from diluting the stuffing.
  • Generously Season the Salmon: Don't be afraid to season the salmon liberally with salt and pepper. This will enhance the natural flavors of the fish.
  • Make a Flavorful Stuffing: Combine feta cheese, ricotta cheese, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, pine nuts, and seasonings to create a flavorful and aromatic stuffing.
  • Carefully Stuff the Salmon: Gently stuff the salmon with the prepared stuffing, taking care not to overstuff it as it might burst during cooking.
  • Secure the Stuffed Salmon: Use toothpicks or skewers to secure the opening of the stuffed salmon, preventing the stuffing from spilling out.
  • Roast at the Right Temperature: Roast the stuffed salmon at a high temperature initially to sear the fish and then reduce the temperature to allow it to cook evenly throughout.
  • Baste the Salmon: While roasting, baste the salmon with melted butter or olive oil to keep it moist and prevent it from drying out.

Conclusion:

The combination of tender, flaky salmon and the flavorful feta-ricotta-spinach stuffing makes this dish a true culinary delight. It's a perfect balance of flavors and textures that will impress your taste buds. Whether you're serving it for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner, this stuffed salmon recipe is sure to be a hit among your family and friends.
