  2. Carefully slice a pocket into the thickest part of each salmon fillet without cutting through the bottom. Fill them with the crab and shrimp mixture.
  3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish and arrange the stuffed salmon in it. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily.
