Time 49m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 ripe mangoes - peeled, pitted, and diced
1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and diced
1 orange bell pepper, diced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
1 lime, juiced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 pinch salt
1 tablespoon sweet and spicy seafood rub, or to taste
½ teaspoon chili powder, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 skin-on salmon fillets
2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed, divided
6 corn tortillas
3 large limes, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Combine mangoes, avocado, orange bell pepper, and jalapeno in a large bowl to make salsa. Add lime juice, cilantro, and salt; mix to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
  • Sprinkle seafood rub, chili powder, salt, and black pepper over 1 side of each salmon steak; rub in with your fingers until evenly distributed.
  • Coat the bottom of a large skillet with olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add salmon skin-side down and cook until skin is crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip salmon and carefully peel off skin. Season top with seafood rub, chili powder, salt and black pepper. Continue cooking until lightly browned on the second side and salmon flakes easily with a fork, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Slice each salmon fillet lengthwise to create 6 pieces.
  • Lightly oil another skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry corn tortillas, one at a time, until heated through and pliable, about 30 seconds per side.
  • Place 1 piece of salmon on each tortilla. Top with salsa. Squeeze a wedge of lime on top.

Time 45m

Yield 8 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus additional for brushing
1 tablespoon lime juice plus lime wedges, for garnish
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon coarse salt, plus additional for sprinkling
Four 6-ounce skinless salmon fillets
1 red bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, cut into thin strips
1 yellow bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, cut into thin strips
1 large red onion, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices
8 taco-size flour tortillas
1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco
1 avocado, cubed
Torn fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill for cooking at medium-high heat.
  • Whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, lime juice, cumin, garlic powder and salt in a small mixing bowl. Brush the marinade on both sides of the salmon fillets. Place in a basket flipper or fish basket.
  • Place the sliced peppers and red onion in a grilling tray. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Place the basket tray on the hot grill and cook, stirring occasionally, until you get good grill marks all over and the veggies have softened, anywhere from 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, place the basket flipper on the grill; grill the salmon until nicely browned on both sides and opaque in the middle, 4 minutes per side. Remove the salmon from the grill and transfer to a plate. Flake gently.
  • Place the tortillas on the grill for a few seconds per side, letting them char and bubble up.
  • Stuff each tortilla with a mix of peppers, onion and flaked salmon. Top with crumbled queso fresco, cubed avocado, cilantro and a final spritz of lime juice! Dive in.
