This stuffed salmon recipe is even better than it looks! Our Crabmeat Stuffed Salmon takes imitation crab and combines it with this beautiful fish to make one of our favorite dinner recipes. Seafood recipes, specifically salmon recipes, can be tricky. So why not go for a seafood dinner recipe you know is going to be a success? This healthy recipe is easy, flavorful, and is sure to leave you pleasently stuffed! Once you try it, we know you'll be hooked.
What You'll Need:
- 1/2 pound imitation crabmeat, flaked
- 1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
- 6 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
What To Do:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients except salmon; mix well and set aside.
- Cut a slit lengthwise 3/4 of way through each salmon fillet. Evenly divide stuffing into each slit and place on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake 15 to 20 minutes, or until fish flakes easily.
Notes
Our Simple Roasted Asparagus is a healthy and tasty go-along with this salmon recipe. You can also dress up your dish with a bit of our hollandaise sauce.

This was absolutely delicious - restaurant quality! The use of imitation crab meat was perfect for me, as I'm allergic to crab. My husband and I both loved this dish and I will be making it again and often! Thank you for a real winner!

They sometimes serve a dish just like this at that famous seafood chain restaurant (I'm not mentioning any names) but it can be so expensive there! Now you can make this delicious and fancy looking dish at home at a mere fraction of the cost of eating out! All the seafood lovers in your family will ask you to make this again and again! I like to serve it with a baked sweet potato and corn on the cob on the side.

My son who HATES fish asks me weekly to make this for him ...I used lump crab and squeeze a bit a lemon over it before serving. I also served fresh steamed green beans and sauteed a fresh tomato in garlic and olive oil with a dash of balsamic vinegar and seasoned to taste to go over the beans. He says I'm his gourmet chef ...the lil bugger stole my heart with that one!

Recipe looks great (I saved it) but imitation crab? Not on a bet. The garlic and onion powders are out, too.

This is Mr. Food website who takes pride in making easy recipes with fewer ingredients and fewer steps, and ingredients that are much easier to find. If you don't like it, go elsewhere!!!!

Kojak, seriously, if you are going to spend good money on salmon why use imitation crab? But if you can't find good crab I guess shrimp would be my next pick.

OMG. Seems that Kojak has anger issues. He has another similar comment below. I agree with not using imitation crab meat but I'm afraid of Kojak.

I prepared this dish and it was delicious! I used real crabmeat and plain breadcrumbs. I used dill and lemon instead of onion and garlic powder. I plan to prepare this dish again and again!!!

I don't cook with fish often enough, but this recipe will definitely help remedy that. It truly was quick and easy with simple ingredients, but nice enough to impress company and healthy too. What's not to love!

Homemade Jelly Donut Holes
You've got to try our Homemade Jelly Donut Holes for a fun and sometimes messy treat that's great all-year-round! Wonder how we get the jelly in the middle? The secret is using a drinking straw to make space for that oh-so-sweet jelly that fills the center! Top these with powdered or cinnamon sugar, and let the family get their fingers a little sticky! Just make sure to keep the napkins handy.
