Crab Cake Stuffed Salmon

Ok the is the last crab dish for a while, I promise!!!


So I cheated a little bit on this by buying pre-made crab cakes...

If you're going to make crab cakes on your own, find a good recipe!

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 Degrees

1) Prep the crab cakes as you like

2) For the sauce:
*1/2 cup chardonnay
*2 TBSP butter
*1 shallot, diced

In a small saucepan over medium-low heat add chardonnay & butter and reduce, stirring occasionally for approx. 10 minutes.
Add shallots and continue reducing while other items are cooking

3) Salmon

Make a long incision in the salmon, about 2/3 of the depth of the filet
Stuff with the crab cake (or just plain crab)
As you can see from the picture, overflow is fine
Spray a glass baking pan with non-stick spray and place salmon inside
Bake for 15-20 minutes

Pour chardonnay reduction over salmon and enjoy!!
