Instructions

  1. Make a horizontal slice in the center of each salmon fillet but do not cut all the way through.
  2. Fill a large bowl with ice and cold water. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add spinach and cook uncovered until tender, about 40 seconds. Drain in a colander and immediately immerse in ice water; drain thoroughly and transfer to a bowl.
  3. Add sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, and feta to the blanched spinach; mix to combine. Divide evenly and stuff into the salmon “pockets.” Season fillets with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Place salmon fillets, skin-side down, in the hot skillet and sear for 5 minutes. Gently flip and sear the other sides for 5 minutes. Flip again to finish cooking, about 5 minutes more.
