Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the crab meat and chopped shrimp, ensuring the crab is well-drained if canned.
  2. Add in the cream cheese, gluten-free breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Blend the ingredients until they form a creamy mixture, making sure all components are evenly distributed.
  4. Lay the salmon fillets skin-side down on a cutting board and carefully slice horizontally into the thickest part to create pockets.
  5. Stuff each pocket of the salmon fillets with the crab and shrimp mixture, pressing lightly.
  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with oil or cooking spray.
  7. Arrange the stuffed salmon fillets inside, ensuring they are spaced adequately. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the salmon is opaque.
  8. Allow the salmon to rest for 5 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
