Best Creamy Cajun Stuffed Salmon Recipe

Blackened and stuffed, these salmon fillets are packed with Cajun flavor and are quite easy to prepare for a last-minute, weeknight dinner. Tip: Ask the fish counter for pieces of salmon from the head side of the fish (opposed to the tail side). These fillets will be thicker, easier to stuff, and will match the cooking time in our recipe, whereas thinner fillets will cook faster and are more likely to tear when you stuff them. For ours, we used fillets that were just around 1 1/2″ at the thickest part, which are just perfect for this recipe.

Buy Cajun seasoning (or make your own!) that is made without salt—this way, you can control the amount of salt that goes into the recipe. If you have salted Cajun seasoning, just omit or back down on the amount of salt we suggest.

Serve these with some mashed potatoes or rice (bonus points if it’s red beans and rice) and crisp tender vegetables, like roasted broccolini, steamed green beans, or glazed carrots. Salads would also make a lovely easy side to complete this meal.
