Description

Fresh salmon wrapped in a warm tortilla, paired with zesty mango salsa and jalapeño cream sauce for a delightful flavor combination.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb salmon fillets
  • 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil (for greasing)
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 1 cup ripe mango, diced
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 jalapeño, seeds removed and finely chopped
  • Corn or flour tortillas
  • Optional toppings: lime wedges, extra cilantro


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the salmon: Place the salmon fillets on a greased baking sheet. Brush each fillet with BBQ sauce and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Bake the salmon: Cook in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  4. Make the avocado mango salsa: In a mixing bowl, combine the diced avocado, mango, onion, cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Gently toss together.
  5. Prepare the jalapeño cream: In another bowl, mix the sour cream, chopped jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  6. Warm the tortillas: Heat the tortillas on a skillet or in the oven until they’re warm and pliable.
  7. Assemble the tacos: Flake the cooked salmon and place it on each tortilla. Top with avocado mango salsa and drizzle with jalapeño cream.

Notes

Make sure your salmon is fresh and skinless for the best texture. Feel free to experiment with different BBQ sauces.
