Ingredients:

- 4 salmon fillets

- 1/4 cup cream cheese

- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning

- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- Salt and pepper, to taste

- Dried thyme, for garnish (optional)

Direction:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

 

2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and Cajun seasoning. Mix well until the seasoning is evenly distributed throughout the cream cheese.

 

3. Lay the salmon fillets on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season the salmon with salt and pepper to taste.

 

4. Using a sharp knife, carefully make a slit in the side of each salmon fillet to create a pocket for the stuffing.

 

5. Spoon the cream cheese mixture into the pocket of each salmon fillet, spreading it evenly.

 

6. Drizzle the olive oil over the stuffed salmon fillets.

 

7. Bake the salmon for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

 

8. Optional: Sprinkle some dried thyme over the salmon fillets before serving for a pop of flavor and color.

 

Serve the Creamy Cajun Stuffed Salmon with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or a mixed green salad. Enjoy!
