  2. Set the filling aside.
Prepare the Salmon

  3. Stuff each salmon fillet with the crab and shrimp filling, pressing gently to secure.
  4. Place the stuffed salmon fillets in a baking dish and drizzle with olive oil.
Bake the Salmon
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  2. Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve
  1. Garnish with lemon slices and serve warm.
