Provided by PineyCook

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb frozen spinach, thawed and drained
1 1/2 lbs potatoes, cooked and thickly sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 large onion, diced
2 tbsp butter
1 lb salmon fillet
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp flour
1 cup cream
1 cup milk
2 eggs
1/3 lb Gouda, grated
salt, pepper, nutmeg

Steps:

  • In frying pan, heat 1 tbsp. butter. Cook half of diced onion until translucent. Add garlic. Add spinach and 1/4 cup water. Cover and let simmer about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Put finished spinach into a sieve to drain while you are making the rest of the casserole. Cut salmon into bite-size pieces and sprinkle with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Preheat oven to 400° F. Grease casserole dish. In another frying pan, cook remaining onion in 1 tbsp. butter until translucent. Stir in flour and briefly cook. Mix 1 cup cream and 3/4 cup milk. Add to onion/flour mixture and whisk until smooth. Add half the Gouda to sauce. Season with salt, pepper, and generous amount of nutmeg. Remove from heat. Whisk eggs with remaining 1/4 cup milk and stir into sauce. Layer potatoes in casserole. Spoon a bit of sauce over potatoes. Cover with spinach. Evenly spread salmon pieces over top. Spoon remaining sauce over top. Sprinkle with remaining gouda. Bake, uncovered about 35 minutes. Salmon should flake when cut. Serves 4 Hints: Use Emmentaler or Swiss instead of Gouda If you make this ahead of time, put it in the fridge until it's time to bake. You will need to increase the baking time by about 10 minutes. Use a casserole dish that is large and shallow rather than narrow and deep. It will allow the potatoes and spinach to heat up quicker.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 sweet potatoes
1 tbsp olive oil or rapeseed oil
2 salmon fillets, skin removed

SALMON FILLETS WITH SPINACH FOR TWO



Salmon Fillets with Spinach for Two image

Frozen spinach and garden vegetable cream cheese combine with salmon fillets! This is easy to double, if you need 4 servings. Created for a regular oven, this recipe is easily prepared in an air fryer by reducing the temperature by 25 degrees and reducing the time by five minutes. Be sure to monitor for doneness, because overcooking will dry out the salmon.

Provided by Bibi

Time 35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
¾ cup chopped fresh mushrooms
¼ cup chopped onion
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 ounces garden vegetable cream cheese, softened
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 (8 ounce) skinless salmon fillets
ground sea salt to taste
2 slices lemon
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 9x11-inch baking pan with foil.
  • Press as much liquid from the thawed spinach as possible using clean dish towels or paper towels and place in a medium mixing bowl.
  • Melt butter in a small, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Stir in mushrooms and onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions begin to turn clear, about 4 minutes. Add cooked mushrooms and onions to spinach with Parmesan cheese, garden vegetable cream cheese, and garlic powder. Stir until well combined and add kosher salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Combine olive oil and lemon juice in a small bowl.
  • Pat salmon fillets dry and brush both sides with the combined olive oil and lemon juice. Place fillets in the foil-lined pan and sprinkle with ground sea salt. Divide spinach mixture evenly between the two fillets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the salmon flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 19 minutes. Garnish with lemon slices and fresh parsley.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh salmon, spinach, and vegetables will yield the best flavor and texture in your casserole.

  • Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your casserole. Use a flavorful cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, Gruyère, or Parmesan.
  • Season the casserole well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of salt and pepper to your casserole. This will help to enhance the flavor of the salmon, spinach, and vegetables.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, dill, or chives, can add a pop of color and flavor to your casserole. Sprinkle them on top before serving.
