1. How To Cook Costco Stuffed Salmon in Oven

Ingredients

  • Butter or oil for greasing pan

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F.

Next, lightly grease a baking sheet with butter or oil. Then place the stuffed salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are spaced apart and not overlapping.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Baking time may vary depending on the thickness of your fillets.

Optionally, you can broil the fillets for 1-2 minutes at the end to brown and crisp the tops. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.

Remove pan from oven and let salmon rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve salmon warm with desired sides and fresh lemon wedges. Enjoy!
