Remove the salmon from the package and pat it dry with a paper towel.

Use a sharp chef knife to make vertical slits in the salmon, about half an inch apart, stopping before cutting through the skin.

Chop shallots and garlic, then add them to a pan with olive oil and sauté carefully.

Add frozen and squeezed chopped spinach to the pan.

Add cream cheese to the spinach mixture and allow it to melt throughout.

Chop pecans and cranberries, then toss them into the spinach and cream cheese mixture.

Take spoonfuls of the creamy mixture and spread it into the slits of the salmon.

Preheat the oven to 425°F (convection heat).

Season the salmon with salt and drizzle with olive oil before placing it in the oven.

Bake the salmon until cooked through, serving as a festive centerpiece.
