Lindsays notes
These tacos are just dinner for me!
I did it a few nights ago, and I put the blade pan from salmon onto the table and my whole family literally got there and started to grab my hands and forks when I was looking for half a shock, half proud. It was a feeding frenzy.
Of course we love salmon. It is a great source of nutrition and protein, and when it is cooked well, it slips gently into butter -like, juicy, delightful little flakes.
But I will not lie to you: The main event here is the mango -maize -salsa.
The salmon itself is completely SOS (Taco spice and that’s it). So I think it makes sense to put all your efforts and energy into the salsa. This salsa is also what she lives at the table for a long time after completing tacos, only a few additional salsa bites of itself and suddenly as a salad? It can be a salad, right? I would eat this salsa alone as a salad.
In general, I believe that salmon and mango are a game in heaven.
Each bite is particularly crispy and unexpectedly from the raw corn of sugar and the cucumber with a little juicy taste. But it is also mainstream with the mango that my two young children usually like to devour it with us.
I love a million sauces on my Tacos (okay, good, on every recipe). But with this everything it needs needs a bit additional lime and honey to end it. Simple, minimal effort, maximum delicacy.

Description
Super simple salmon tacos, loaded with mango, sucker corn and cucumber alsa! Perfect with black beans or avocado that are hidden in a corn tortilla.
Salmon Tacos:
Mango -Mais -salsa:
Extras:
- Preparation: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Season the salmon: Throw the salmon with the taco spice and the avocado oil to well overwhelmed you can do this in a bowl or directly on the baking sheet. If your Taco spice has no salt, add some salt to the salmon.
- Bake the salmon: Bake the salmon for 8 minutes near the top of the oven or until it slides slightly apart when it is pressed with a fork.
- Make the salsa: While the salmon bakes, chop your salsa ingredients and throw them together in a bowl. Season to taste.
- Soften the tortillas: To soften the corn tortillas, I usually heat some oil in a large pan and give the tortilla a very fast one-sided immersion in the hot oil and transfer it to a plate lined with paper circuit. I stack it as I go so that the warmth and oil spread between all tortillas. You can also wrap the tortillas in a few damp paper towels and the microwave for 30 seconds to dampen them so that they are flatter and tasty to eat.
- Assemble the Tacos: Spread mash avocado or spread beans on the underside of the tortilla. Add a few salmon pieces; Press you to smash them gently. Top with a large ball of the salsa. I often end them with lime squeezers and a splash honey!
Notes
Buying salmon: For this recipe, I am looking for salmon fillets that are beautiful and thick so that you can sniff it! Usually I cut off the skin and then cut into large cubes. I love the shape of the cube because they cook beautifully and evenly and make a funny shape apart in Taco. It is also totally okay to sprinkle your spices on a thinner fillet and train the fish apart to put it in the tacos.
Salmon bars: People cook salmon to different degrees on the bones, depending on their preferences and the quality of the salmon. I like to cook it well where everything is almost totally cooked, but it is nice and soft and slightly slips apart when you press it with a fork. Here is a guide with further information about the cooking of salmon and to recognize when this is done.
Salsa sharpness: As written, this salsa is not sharp at all, but a Jalapeño would be a great addition! I think it is mild for my children, but if that’s not your trip, go the heat!
Tortillas: In the photos I used a thicker type of tortilla (corn and flour mixture), which I charred in a dry cast iron pan. If I usually do this, I use regular corn tortillas and follow the recipe instructions to alleviate them.
Taco spice: All brands are different, but if you want to use a mild one and want to get started with your salmon, sprinkle it with a little additional chilli powder, onion powder and garlic powder. *Head of the chef*
Air brown of the salmon: This would work well with this recipe for air fractional salmon. I have just replaced the spices in this recipe by the Taco spice in this!

Which Taco spice do you like?
Lately I’ve used Kowalski (a local grocery store) – that’s my favorite in this recipe.
I like that too Siete Brand Mild Taco (Affiliate -Link) – The spicy is a little bit for my children, but the mild is great.
Which tortillas do you like?
In these photos I use the La Tortilla Factory corn and flour mixture Tortillas! They are a little thicker than their average tortillas and they stay well, which is why I selected them for the photos.
If I do this at home, no photos necessary, I usually only use a standard -yellow corn tortilla.
Can I use something else except salmon?
Yes, that would be delicious with chicken or shrimp! Simply fit your baking time a little bit of chicken needs more than 10-12 minutes (depending on the size of your pieces) and the shrimp would be about 8 minutes.
Can I make this vegetarian?
I would fry some cauliflower instead of the salmon after increasing the same method to coat with the Taco spice and increasing the Bratze period to 25-30 minutes.
If you are looking for additional protein, Tofu would also be good. Here is our guide to cooking tofu – I would recommend the crispy baked method!
Can I make this gluten -free / milk -free milk -free?
It should be both gluten -free and milk -free, as written!
Check your Taco spices and your corn tortillas for any additional wheat or dairy products. Otherwise, all other ingredients are good to go!
How does that last as the remains?
I would not recommend this as a remaining meal. The salsa becomes a bit damp and the salmon is not warmed up (everyone is different, but this is just my personal opinion).
If you cook for one or two people, I would only keep the salsa ingredients separately and throw them before serving and maybe even the additional salmon until shortly before serving.
Can I radiate the salmon?
Yes! And I can only recommend it! Here you can find out how to make air fryer salmon. I would replace the spices in this recipe with the Taco spice in this recipe.
