Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Place the fresh salmon fillet on the tray, drizzle with olive oil, and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Let it cool to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Flake the baked salmon into small pieces and add it to the bowl, along with the smoked salmon (chopped into small pieces).
Stir in the capers, green onions, dill, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more lemon juice or salt if desired.
Transfer the spread to a serving dish, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the Deluxe Salmon Spread chilled with crackers, bagels, or fresh veggie sticks. Enjoy!
