Ingredients
For the salmon:
- 4 salmon filets about (5 ounces each)
- 4 ounces (113 g) Dungeness crab meat
- 4 ounces (113 g) bay shrimp
- 4 ounces (113 g) brie cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons (28 g) mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons (0.2 g) fresh dill chopped
- Pinch (Pinch) of salt and pepper
For the lemon butter sauce:
- 4 ounces (113 ml) white wine
- 1 tablespoons (15 ml) lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 6 (6) whole black peppercorns
- 1 shallot minced
- 3/4 cup (177.44 ml) heavy cream
- 4 ounces (113 g) butter cold, cut into pieces
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly butter an 8x10” baking dish.
- In a bowl, combine the crab, shrimp, brie, mayonnaise, dill, salt, and pepper. Gently blend the mixture together.
- Cut a slit along the top of the salmon filets. Divide the stuffing mixture and stuff it into each of the 4 filets. The stuffing will be exposed, mostly sitting on top of the salmon. Place the salmon into the buttered dish.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the center of the salmon registers 135° F.
- While the fish is cooking, make the sauce. Combine wine, lemon juice, peppercorns, and shallot in a non-corrosive saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the sauce is reduced to about 2 tablespoons, with a syrup consistency, about 5 minutes. Add cream and reduce further until the mixture is about 4 tablespoons and syrupy, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Add the butter, 2 ounces at a time, stirring constantly. Allow each piece to melt before adding more.
- When the salmon is done, remove from oven. Serve with the lemon butter sauce spooned over the top.
