Prep time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 20 minutes Total time: 30 minutes

INGREDIENTS

4 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil, divided

5 ounces fresh baby spinach (about 5 cups)

1 clove garlic minced (about 1 teaspoon)

3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, divided

1/2 teaspoon black pepper, divided

pinch red pepper flakes

1/4 cup cream cheese

1/4 cup mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan

4 6-ounce salmon fillets, skin off or on

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Use a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean up. Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat oven to 425 degrees F
2. Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a big handful of spinach and cook, stirring often, until it begins to wilt. Stir in the garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Let cook for 30 seconds. Continue adding the remaining spinach by large handfuls until it completely wilts down. Remove the pan from the heat.
3. Stir in the cream cheese until it melts and smoothly combines with the spinach. Stir in the mozzarella and Parmesan, until the cheeses melt and the mixture looks like spinach dip.
4. Place salmon fillets on a clean work surface and pat dry. With a small knife, make a cut lengthwise down the middle of the each filet to create a pocket. Do not cut the fish all the way through. Transfer the salmon to the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. With a small spoon, fill each fillet with a quarter of the spinach mixture.
5. Drizzle the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil over the fillets and brush with a pastry brush or lightly rub with your fingers to coat. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake until the salmon is opaque in the center and flakes easily with a fork, 8-10 minutes.

Enjoy this delicious meal with sides of your choice.
