Ingredients

Servings

For the Salmon

  • 1-2 teaspoons chipotle chile powder
  • 1 pound salmon fillet cut into 4 pieces, skinless
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • salt
  • lime wedges

For the Avocado Mango Salsa

  • 2 avocado diced
  • 1 Mango diced
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro chopped
  • lime fresh juice and extra for garnish

Toppings

  • red cabbage shredded
  • chipotles in adobo
  • ½ cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Rub each piece of salmon with 1 teaspoon of the olive oil and dust with the chipotle powder. Let stand for 5 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, heat a grill pan. Season the salmon with salt and grill over high heat until nicely browned and just cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the cooked salmon.
  3. While the salmon is cooking, combine the diced avocado, mango and cilantro in a small bowl and toss to combine. Season with salt, pepper and lime juice.
  4. Combine some of the sour cream and a few teaspoons of the liquid from the chipotles in adobo in a bowl and whisk to combine for a spicy crema. Char the tortillas until slightly darkened.
  5. Gently break each piece of salmon into large chunks and evenly distribute in the tortillas on top of a little bit of shredded cabbage. Add equal amounts of the salsa and serve as needed with the chipotle crema drizzled on top.

Notes

  • If you don't have a grill, or want to do the salmon in the oven... preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and cook for 15-20 minutes until cooked through!
