Ingredients:

Mirelurk Queen Steak:

Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.

Heat some canola oil in a medium sauté pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Toss in the scallions and mushrooms, cooking until they’re softened, roughly 5 minutes. Then, add the spinach and cook until it wilts down, about 2 minutes. Once done, take it off the heat and let it cool. Once cool, give the veggies a good squeeze to remove any excess liquid.

In a small bowl, mix together the cooked veggies, crabmeat, cream cheese, lemon juice, and a dash of celery salt. Lay out your salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet and season them with a bit of salt and pepper. Now, make a small lengthwise incision along each fillet, being careful not to slice all the way through. Divide your crabmeat mixture in half and stuff it into the incisions, piling any extra stuffing on top of each fillet.

Pop your stuffed salmon in the oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, just until the stuffing starts to turn a delicious golden brown. Then, get ready to enjoy a seafood sensation that’s as easy to make as it is scrumptious!

1 1/2 tablespoon canola oil
2 scallions, green and white parts sliced

1/2 cup spinach, measured then chopped
1/2 cup lump crabmeat
1/4 cup cream cheese, at room temperature

Add the bacon slices to the bowl and generously season by tossing. Wrap each scallop with a slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick. Season the wrapped scallops with salt and pepper. Arrange all the scallops on a rack inside a deep baking dish. Roast in the oven for 15 minutes. Then, flip them and roast for another 15 minutes until the scallops are fully cooked and the bacon turns crispy.
