Smoked Salmon Phyllo Package Recipes

SMOKED SALMON FILO CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven according to the package instructions for the filo cups. Put the filo cups on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown and crispy according to the package instructions. Let cool.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, salmon, creme fraiche, capers, shallot, lemon zest and juice, 1 tablespoon of the dill and 1 tablespoon of the chives. Transfer the mixture to a ziptop bag. Cut an approximately 1-inch opening in the corner of the bag. Pipe the salmon mixture evenly among the filo cups, filling them to the top.
• Mix together the remaining dill and chives, then sprinkle some of the herbs on top of each cup to garnish. Serve immediately.

HOW TO MAKE PESTO SALMON PHYLLO PARCELS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towel and season with salt and pepper. Lay skin-side down on a cutting board or plate and top each fillet with a tablespoon of pesto, or more to taste, ensuring the entire top of the fillet is evenly covered. Set aside while you prepare the phyllo.
• Lay a sheet of phyllo flat on a work surface and brush with olive oil. Lay another sheet on top, brushing with oil. Repeat process for a total of four sheets, leaving the top of the last sheet dry. Place one of the prepared salmon fillets at the bottom of the stack of phyllo sheets with the pesto side facing up. Roll over once, so the skin side is facing up, then fold over the sides. Brush all over with oil. Continue rolling until the end of the phyllo, then place on the parchment-lined baking sheet with the pesto side facing up and brush the top with oil. Score the top 2 to 3 times to allow steam to escape. Repeat with the remaining salmon and phyllo.
• Bake parcels in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until the phyllo is golden brown. Remove from oven and let rest a minute or two before serving.

SMOKED SALMON CHEESE CUPS

Steps:

• Thaw phyllo shells as directed on package. In medium bowl, mix all remaining ingredients except pecans until well mixed. Spoon into 1-quart resealable food-storage plastic bag. Seal bag; cut 1/2 inch off 1 corner of bag.
• To serve, pipe or spoon cheese-salmon mixture into each phyllo cup. Sprinkle each with pecans.

SMOKED SALMON PHYLLO PACKAGE

Steps:

• Mix together the cream cheese, chives, parsley, tarragon, paprika, salt (to taste), and pepper (to taste) in a bowl. You may need to add a spoonful of milk or water to thin the consistency slightly. It needs to be thick but slightly spreadable.
• Brush the melted butter on each sheet of phyllo dough and layer gently.
• In the center, right half of the phyllo rectangle, gently spread half of the cream cheese mixture, layer half of the brie slices, and sprinkle half of the onions. Add salmon slices and season with a bit of salt and pepper. It is ok if they overlap. Top the salmon with the remaining cream cheese, onions, and brie.
• Fold over the empty half of the phyllo and create a large package, sealing tightly around the edges. Make it as pretty or rustic as you prefer.
• Brush the top of the dough with melted butter.
• Bake in a 400 degree oven for about 7-8 minutes, or until outside is golden brown and flaky. Cool before slicing.
• Slice into squares and serve at a brunch or as an appetizer. It goes well with mustard, bagels, bagel chips, cheese, vegetables, fruit, etc.
• Enjoy!
