Description

Delicious salmon tacos featuring fresh ingredients and vibrant flavors, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • 1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup pico de gallo


Instructions

  1. Season the salmon by rubbing it with olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the salmon skin-side down and cook until the skin crisps, then flip and cook until flaky.
  3. Warm the corn tortillas over a dry skillet or low flame until flexible, then wrap in a towel to keep warm.
  4. Prepare the toppings by slicing the avocado and shredding the cabbage. For pico de gallo, mix diced tomatoes, onion, fresh cilantro, and lime.
  5. Flake the cooked salmon into pieces, place on warm tortillas, and top with cabbage, avocado, pico de gallo, and a drizzle of yogurt or sour cream. Garnish with fresh cilantro.

Notes

Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the salmon for a crispy texture. Prepare pico de gallo ahead of time for better flavor.
