How to Make Baked Salmon Topped With Crab
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking pan with foil for easy cleanup.
- Lightly spray the foil with cooking spray.
- Gently crumble 4 ounces of lump crab meat.
- Butterfly your salmon fillet by cutting a horizontal slit almost all the way through, opening it like a book.
- Season both sides of the salmon with 1 teaspoon of lemon pepper.
- Gently close the salmon fillet.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise evenly over the top of the salmon fillet. Sprinkle with the remaining lemon pepper.
- Evenly top the salmon with the crumbled crab meat.
- Sprinkle 1 ounce of shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese) over the crab meat.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Broil for 1-2 minutes to brown the cheese, watching carefully to prevent burning.
