¼ cup cream cheese, softened

¼ cup mayonnaise

1 medium green onion, chopped

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 pinch salt

1 pinch black pepper


Directions

1.

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with oil or non-stick cooking spray.

2.

In a mixing bowl, combine crab meat, shrimp, cream cheese, mayonnaise, green onion, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well blended.

3.

Place the salmon fillets on a cutting board, and using a sharp knife, make a slit along the side of each fillet to create a pocket.

Spoon the crab and shrimp stuffing into each pocket, making sure not to overfill. Gently press the sides of the salmon to seal.

5.

Transfer the stuffed salmon fillets into the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

6.

Serve warm with your choice of sides. Enjoy your delicious crab and shrimp stuffed salmon!
