Delicious and easy salmon stuffed with real crab meat! Ready in under 20 minutes.
Crab Stuffed Salmon Recipes usually require very little seasoning but I am so in love with my crab cakes recipe that I decided to use that recipe to season the crab filling for this recipe. I used mayo, cream cheese, mustard, old bay etc. It was very flavorful and moist.
If you don’t care for salmon I would highly recommend using Chilean Sea Bass (my favorite!!) if you want to splurge a tad.
