- 1- 1/2 pound Salmon Fillet, Skin Removed And Cut Into 1" Cubes
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a large saute pan heat olive oil.

- Add in garlic and stir until it becomes fragrant.
- Add in spinach and toss until wilted.
- Remove from heat and set the spinach mixture on a plate to cool.
- Remove phyllo dough from package.
- Gently remove one to two sheets at a time and seal the phyllo back up to prevent it from drying out.
- While working with phyllo have damp paper towels handy to cover the phyllo thats not being immediately usedso it does not dry out and become more brittle.
- Cut phyllo sheets into 3 wide strips down the length of the phyllo dough.
- There should be about 3 strips per sheet.
- Use one strip at a time and cover remaining strips with a damp paper towel.
- Using melted butter and a pastry brush, brush down a strip of phyllo with butter.
- In one corner of the phyllo dough, place some of the wilted spinach mixture, about 1 tablespoon.
- Top with a few feta cheese crumbles.
- Place one cube of salmon on top.
- And sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Fold up the phyllo strip with the salmon/spinach contents like a flag, working very gently.
- When the phyllo strip and salmon/spinach mix has been folded, brush the top of it with butter again.
- Place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
- Repeat to finish all Salmonkopitas.
- Bake for 25 minutes, or according to phyllo dough package instructions.
