Ingredients
For the blackened salmon
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 salmon 6 to 7-ounce pieces, pin bones removed, skin-on
- 2 tablespoons neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
For the tacos
- 8 corn tortilla or flour tortillas
- 2 cups romaine lettuce shredded
- 1 cup diced tomato
- 1/2 cup red onion diced
- 2 tablespoon cilantro minced
- 1/4 cup tomatillo avocado salsa or sour cream
- 1 lime cut into small wedges
Instructions
- To make salmon: In a small bowl combine the spices. Put the mixture on a plate or other flat surface and coat the portions of salmon, 1 at a time, on the flesh side only. Heat a large heavy-bottomed pan or cast-iron skillet over medium heat, and add the oil. Add the salmon flesh side down. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until the skin is crispy. Once the salmon has slightly cooled, peel the skin away with a fork and shred into large chunks.
- To assemble: Char the tortillas on the stove-top (gas stoves only) until the edges are lightly burnt. Fill each tortilla with lettuce, tomato, onion, about 1/2 of each salmon fillet, a sprinkle of cilantro, a drizzle of fresh lime and a drizzle of sour-cream or salsa.
