Ingredients
  

4 salmon fillets (6 oz. each)

1 cup lump crab meat, picked over for shells

1 cup shrimp, peeled and deveined, chopped

1 medium shallot, finely diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup breadcrumbs

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for drizzling

Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare the Filling: In a skillet over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil. Sauté the diced shallot and minced garlic until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

      Mix the Stuffing: In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, chopped shrimp, sautéed shallots and garlic, cream cheese, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

        Prepare the Salmon: Lay the salmon fillets skin-side down on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, make a pocket in each fillet by cutting horizontally about 3/4 of the way through. Be careful not to cut all the way through.

          Stuff the Salmon: Generously fill each pocket with the crab and shrimp mixture. Use toothpicks to secure the opening, if necessary.

            Bake the Salmon: Place the stuffed salmon fillets on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Drizzle a little olive oil over each fillet and season with salt and pepper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

              Serve: Carefully remove the toothpicks, if used. Serve the stuffed salmon warm with lemon wedges on the side.
