Ingredients

  • 4 (6 ounce) thick salmon fillets
  • 1 (6 ounce) can lump crabmeat, divided
  • 4 slices smoked Gouda cheese
  • ¼ cup butter, melted
  • 2 lemons, juiced - divided
  • 1 (8 ounce) carton sour cream

  • Cook Time: 30 mins
  • Total Time: 50 mins
  • Servings: 4
  • Yield: 4 servings

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Trim the salmon fillets, if necessary, to remove thin portion; with a very sharp knife, cut the fillets horizontally through the center but leave one end uncut so the fillet opens like a book. Place 1/4 of the lump crabmeat onto each opened fillet, and top crab with a slice of smoked Gouda; close the fillets. Place each fillet into a single-serving baking dish. Mix the melted butter and juice of 1 lemon in a small bowl, and drizzle the lemon butter over all the salmon fillets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily, 30 minutes or as needed.
  • In a bowl, mix the juice of the 2nd lemon with sour cream and dill; spoon sour cream mixture over each baked fillet, and sprinkle liberally with capers. Serve immediately.
