CREAMY SALMON FLORENTINE

Steps:

• In a hot saute pan, add butter and as it begins to smoke, add salmon, spinach and shallots and cook on medium to low heat for 3 minutes.
• Flip salmon over and add heavy cream.
• Cover and reduce cream by half.
• In a small bowl, mix bread crumbs with mozzarella.
• When cream is reduced by half, after 8-10 minutes, salt and pepper salmon to taste.
• Remove salmon from pan and top with spinach, then with the crumb-cheese mixture.
• Put fish on broiler pan and reserve cream sauce.
• Place under boiler until the cheese is melted.
• Finish with the remaining cream sauce and serve.

SPINACH STUFFED SALMON

Steps:

• Make the spinach stuffing. Place the cream cheese, feta, and mozzarella into a medium mixing bowl. Roughly chop the baby spinach and add it to the cheese. Massage the spinach and cheese with your hands, until well combined (it should look like thick paste).
• Prep the salmon. Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket in the center of each salmon fillet.
• Season the salmon. Generously season the salmon fillets with the Cajun seasoning and brush them with olive oil on both sides.
• Stuff the salmon. Divide the spinach stuffing into four equal parts and spoon it into the salmon pockets.
• Bake the salmon. Bake the stuffed fillets in a preheated oven at 400ºF for 15-20 minutes, depending on how large your fillets are.

SALMON LASAGNA

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and stir until mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk the milk into the flour mixture, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook and stir until the mixture thickens, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese and pepper, remove from heat and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Mix spinach, mozzarella cheese, and ricotta cheese together in a medium bowl.
• Spread 1/4 cup of the white sauce over the bottom of a rectangular baking dish. Arrange 1/3 of the lasagna noodles overtop, overlapping to fit. Spoon 1/2 of the ricotta mixture over the noodles and top with 1/2 of the salmon. Repeat layers once more, then top with remaining noodles and remaining white sauce. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Remove and discard foil. Continue baking until bubbly, another 15 minutes.

SALMON QUICHE WITH SPINACH, DILL, AND MOZZARELLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Roll the store-bought pastry into a 9-inch pie plate or tart pan. Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese over the unbaked pastry. Then layer on the baby spinach leaves.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, dill, and red pepper flakes until creamy.
• Pour the egg mixture over the spinach. Add the flaked canned salmon or cooked salmon and sliced green onions over the top of the tart. Finally, sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese.
• Bake for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees, without opening the door, and bake for another 25 to 30 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
• Let cool 10 minutes before cutting into wedges.
