 Crab Topped Baked Salmon 

  

Crab Filling

1/2 lb jumbo lump crab meat
1 large egg 

2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/8 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon chopped scallions
1/4 cups fine breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Whisk the egg in a small bowl.  Add the mustard, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice and Old Bay seasoning.  Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is thoroughly combined. 

In another bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs and the mayonnaise mixture with a wooden spoon and then fold in the crab meat.  Add parsley, scallions and salt to taste.  If you like more of a kick, add more old Bay to taste. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Baked Salmon

 

4 thick cut salmon fillets

1 tablespoon dill weed

Salt and pepper to taste

 

Lay out each salmon fillet on a clean dry surface and pat dry with paper towels. Next drizzle each fillet with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper and dill.  

 

Place fillets on non-stick baking pan or line with parchment paper.  Top each fillet with crab mixture. You want to pack it down tightly so it will cling to the fillet.  

 

Bake at 400 degrees for about 12-15 minutes until topping is golden and the fish flakes easily with a fork.   Serve with sliced lemons as garnish and enjoy!
