- In a mixing bowl, combine chopped shrimp, cream cheese, Parmesan, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Using a sharp knife, make a deep slit along the side of each salmon fillet to create a pocket (do not cut all the way through).

- Place stuffed salmon fillets on a greased baking dish. Brush tops with olive oil or melted butter.
