LAYERED TACO SALAD



Layered Taco Salad image

No meat in this taco salad! My husband and I love this so much we often have it as a meal by itself! Regular Dorito's are sometimes hard to find but taste much better in this salad than Tostito's or other white-corn chips.

Time 50m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

1/2 large red onion, thinly sliced
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup quinoa, rinsed
1/4 cup olive oil, divided
2 small corn or 2 small flour tortillas, halved and thinly sliced into strips
1/2 lb firm white fish fillet (such as redfish, hake)
1 lime, halved, plus additional for serving
2 1/2 cups thinly sliced red cabbage (about 8 ounces)
1 1/4 cups packed thinly sliced tuscan kale
1 avocado, peeled, pitted, and thinly sliced
cilantro leaf, for serving
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
1/2 cup queso fresco
1/3 cup packed cilantro leaf, coarsely chopped
1/2 garlic clove, grated
1/2 jalapeno, coarsely chopped
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the Salad:.
  • Combine red onion, vinegar, sugar and ½ teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Let sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 days in advance, in the refrigerator. Drain before using.
  • In a medium pot, combine quinoa, a large pinch of salt and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Top with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook 12 minutes. Remove lid and continue to cook, stirring occasionally and adjusting heat if necessary, until water is evaporated and quinoa is tender but still al dente, about 4 minutes more.
  • Preheat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add 3 tablespoons olive oil and swirl to coat. Add tortilla strips, season with salt, and saute, stirring frequently until deeply golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Season fish with salt and pepper. Wipe out skillet and add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add fish and press down on fillets with the back of a spatula to encourage crisping and prevent the fish from curling. Cook until golden on the underside, about 2 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until fish is just cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Remove to a plate and squeeze lime halves over fillets.
  • Divide cabbage, kale, avocado, pickled red onions, tortilla strips, fish and quinoa among serving bowls. Top with cilantro leaves and queso fresco dressing and serve.
  • For the Queso Fresco Dressing:.
  • In a blender, combine olive oil, lime juice, yogurt, queso fresco, cilantro, garlic and jalapeno. Blend until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Alternatively, you can use an immersion blender and place ingredients in a glass measuring cup. Leftover dressing will keep in the refrigerator for 1 week.
