Simple Salmon Wellington

This salmon wellington recipe may have a fancy name but it is super simple and weeknight fast!! I dream all day at work for this buttery flaky puff pastry outside hugging the sweet and creamy inside. This sheet tray wonder is totally doable (even when I get home at 7 pm) because that I have found easy short cuts to make this a 30 minutes.

As a kid my Mom would make chicken or salmon during the week. I loved salmon night because it always felt so fancy to me. Every time I make a salmon, I think to me as a kid sitting in my mom’s kitchen in NJ, with the price is right in the background. It makes me smile and this is my childhood comfort food! I love making salmon wellington because its easy and feel indulgent. I crave this allot and created a recipe that was easy enough to do during the week.

Cooking Hack That Makes This a Fast Weeknight Recipe:

  1. Most recipes call for you to cook the spinach and cheese first. That is an extra 20 minutes I could be watching TV with Tom and our french bull dog. I use frozen spinach to skip this step. Frozen spinach is cut cooked and ready to use. So all I do is mix the ingredients in a bowl and let it cook in the oven with the salmon.
  2. Turn the Oven on before you start preparing the recipe. A hot oven makes sure everything cooks evenly! Also, a hot oven and cold dough makes perfect puff pastry. The reason is there are layers of butter in the dough (Julia Child says approx 729 layers) and when heated up it steams and causes the pastry to puff.
