Using a paring knife, cut a slit on the side of each salmon fillet to create a pocket. Do not cut all the way through.<\/div>\n

Season salmon fillets with paprika, marjoram, salt, and pepper. Rub in the seasonings with your fingers. Set aside.<\/div>\n
In a mixing bowl combine softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic, and cajun seasoning; mix and stir until well incorporated. Taste and adjust accordingly. If you like a spicier filling, add some cayenne pepper.<\/div>\n
Spoon the seasoned cheese mixture into the fish pockets.<\/div>\n

Heat 1 \u00bd tablespoons avocado oil (or olive oil) in a large nonstick skillet set over medium-high heat.<\/div>\n
Add 2 salmon fillets to the skillet, skin-side down.<\/div>\n
Cook for 6 minutes, or until fillets are cooked about three-quarters of the way up.<\/div>\n
Using a fish spatula, carefully flip over the fillets; add \u00bd tablespoon butter and continue to cook for 5 more minutes, or until cooked through.<\/div>\n
Slowly remove cooked fish from the pan, trying not to lose any of that filling. Set fish aside.<\/div>\n
Add remaining oil to the skillet; cook remaining two fillets for 6 minutes; flip, add remaining butter, and continue to cook for 5 more minutes.<\/div>\n
Remove from heat.<\/div>\n
Garnish salmon with chopped parsley.<\/div>\n
