Ingredients
- 2 (10 ounce) packages frozen spinach, thawed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup minced shallots
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 5 sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
- 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, rinsed and patted dry
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Using your hands, squeeze spinach of all excess liquid.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and garlic and cook for 3 minutes until they begin to soften. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool approximately 10 minutes. Add ricotta and stir to combine. Season with additional salt and pepper, to taste.
Using your hands, pack approximately 1/2 cup spinach mixture on top of each salmon fillet, forming mixture to the shape of the fillet. Place fillets on a rimmed baking sheet or glass baking dish and bake for 15 minutes, until salmon is cooked through.

Maybe I overcooked the and garlic, relying on timing and not color to determine doneness but it was not at all tasty and I won't do it again. Sorry.

I really loved this recipe. It was SO good. The flavor combo was really amazing. I will make it again and next time I think I will add more garlic and some parm cheese. I did as many suggested and seasoned the salmon with s and p and some olive oil. I also drizzled some olive oil on the spinach mixture too.

delicious! make sure u season your fish first with some salt & pepper and brush with a little bit of EVOO! I sauteed onion and garlic then added FRESH spinach & sun-dried tomatoes mixed with ricotta and cream cheese minture...the top it off with some whole wheat panko breadcrumbs.. gives it a great texture and everyone loved it!
