Baked Salmon Stuffed with Spinach and a Garlic Yogurt Sauce


This is a new one. I woke up thinking about a stuffing a salmon with spinach. The yogurt, garlic and mushrooms just evolved during the day. My sous chef brought it to perfection with mashed cauliflower.
Thin slice a few mushrooms, and leave a few hole or halved. Saute the sliced mushrooms in olive oil, then add spinach and garlic.
Blend some yogurt with minced garlic, paprika and black pepper. Turn off the heat on the wilted spinach and fold in the yogurt mix.
In a oiled glass baking dish, lay down the first piece of salmon. Then spoon on the spinach/yogurt filling. Place the second piece of salmon on top. Brush on some olive oil, season with paprika (I used sweet Spanish paprika) and course ground black pepper. Top this with a handful of Parmesan cheese. Coat your other mushroom wit olive oil and place them on the side. Season with black pepper and garlic powder.
Bake this in a 350° oven for 10-15 minutes (to your liking) and then hit it with a broil to brown off the top.
Serve on top of mashed cauliflower,l garnished with parsley.
The result was incredible!
