SALMON WITH CREAM CHEESE, SPINACH & GARLIC image

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb salmon fillet
paprika
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons garlic, minced really fine
1/2 teaspoon parsley
pepper (to your taste)
1/4 cup onion, chopped very fine
fresh baby spinach
olive oil
garlic powder
salt

Steps:

1 Preheat oven to 400. Spray a 9x9 baking pan with olive oil. Place salmon fillets in pan. Sprinkle lightly with paprika. 2 In a small bowl, mix together the cream cheese, minced garlic, parsley and a sprinkle of pepper. Spread this over the salmon fillets. (I usually micrwave this for 20 to 30 seconds to make it easier to spread). 3 Sprinkle the chopped onion evenly over the cream cheese. 4 Layer the baby spinach leaves evenly and neatly over the onions (I make 4 layers of leaves). 5 Spray or drizzle the spinach leaves with olive oil. Sprinkle lightly with garlic powder, salt and pepper. 6 Cover tightly with foil and bake 25-35 minutes depending on the thickness of your salmon. It takes a little longer than usual because of all the toppings.
