Step-by-Step Instructions for Salmon Wellington
- Prepare Duxelles Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, finely diced red onion, artichoke hearts, shredded Parmesan cheese, fresh thyme leaves, minced garlic, onion salt, and black pepper. Mix until creamy.
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a floured surface into two rectangles measuring about 10"x5".
- Assemble the Base: Place one salmon fillet at the center of each pastry rectangle. Spoon 4-5 tablespoons of the cream cheese duxelles filling over each salmon fillet.
- Wrap the Pastry: Fold the puff pastry over the salmon and filling, pressing the edges together to seal. Use an egg wash to secure the edges.
- Cut & Brush: Place the wrapped Salmon Wellington seam side down on a lined baking sheet. Cut slits on top of the pastry and brush with egg wash.
- Bake: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown. Monitor closely during the last few minutes.
- Cool & Serve: Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes
Ensure puff pastry is cold when handling for best results. Watch baking time closely for a perfect crust.
