Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb salmon
  • 4 oz imitation crab meat finely diced
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup Monterey Jack cheese grated
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 lemon juice & zest
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp fresh Italian parsley
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, add crab meat, cream cheese, jack cheese, dijon mustard, lemon juice & zest, paprika, garlic powder and parsley. Mix ingredients well to create the crab stuffing.
    1 lb salmon, 4 oz imitation crab meat, 4 oz cream cheese, 1/4 cup Monterey Jack cheese, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 1/2 lemon, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp Garlic powder, 1 tsp fresh Italian parsley
  • Turn salmon fillet to side and, with a sharp knife - preferably a boning knife, cut a slit into the center of each fillet to make a pocket for the stuffing. The slit should extend to about one inch from each end but not cut all the way through.
    1 lb salmon
  • Stuff each fillet with the crab stuffing mixture. You can use a tablespoon or just use your hands like I did. 
  • Line air fryer with parchment paper and place salmon filets in a single layer in air fryer basket. 
  • Drizzle with olive oil and season each fillet with salt and black pepper. 
    1 tsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Air fry at 370°F for 8 minutes, depending on thickness of the salmon.
