Ingredients
-
2 teaspoons olive oil, divided, or as needed
-
¼ cup chopped onion, or more to taste
-
½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese
-
¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
-
1 cup chopped fresh spinach
-
1 tablespoon dry bread crumbs
-
1 clove garlic, minced, or to taste
-
salt and ground black pepper to taste
-
1 (8 ounce) salmon fillet
-
1 teaspoon lemon juice, or to taste
Directions
-
Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer to a bowl.
-
Combine cream cheese and blue cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat on high for 25 seconds.
-
Add cheese mixture, spinach, bread crumbs, garlic, salt, and pepper to the onions; mix until well combined. Put stuffing in the freezer until chilled, 15 to 20 minutes.
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper.
-
Cut salmon into 2 portions. Slice each portion in half, leaving a connecting point at one side.
-
Heat remaining oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add salmon and fry until colored a bit, about 15 seconds per side. Transfer salmon to the prepared baking dish.
-
Take stuffing out of the freezer and make into 2 balls. Put 1 ball into each salmon portion.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 17 minutes. Garnish with lemon juice.
Cook’s Note
Best served with some steamed asparagus and baby carrots.
