Roast Salmon And Vegetable Tacos Recipes

ROASTED SALMON TACOS

Steps:

• For the red cabbage slaw: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Whisk together the olive oil, honey, lime zest and juice in a large serving bowl. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and the hot sauce. Add the red onion, radishes, cabbage and cilantro and toss well.
• For the avocado sour cream: Scoop the avocado flesh into the carafe of a blender. Add the sour cream, pickled jalapenos, lime zest, juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add 1 tablespoon water and blend until smooth. (If the mixture is too thick to blend, add 1 to 2 tablespoons more water and blend again). Transfer to a serving bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the salmon: Sprinkle the salmon all over with the chili powder and 1 teaspoon salt and rub it in. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the salmon top-side down and sear until browned, about 1 minute. Flip the salmon and transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until the salmon is just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes, depending on thickness.
• To serve, break the salmon into chunks. Serve in Tortillas with the slaw and sour cream.
• Combine the flour, salt and sugar in a medium bowl. Add the shortening or oil and mix until mealy. Stir in 3/4 cup water to form a dough. Turn it out onto a surface and knead, adding more flour if needed, until a smooth, slightly sticky dough is formed, 5 to 7 minutes. Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a towel and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. (Full disclosure: When we're hungry, we skip this step. But letting the dough rest does make it easier to roll these out.)
• Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Divide the dough into 8 equal parts and roll them out on a lightly-floured surface until they're really thin, keeping the remaining dough balls covered. I like a 1/16- or 1/8-inch thickness but wouldn't turn down a 3/16-inch-thick one. Cook them in the skillet on both sides until they're just starting to show some brown spots, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Keep warm in a towel until ready to serve.

ROASTED SALMON TACOS

Steps:

• At least an hour before you plan to serve the tacos, toss the cabbage, cucumber, vinegar, dill, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper together in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate, allowing the cabbage to marinate.
• When ready to serve, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Brush a baking dish with olive oil and place the salmon in it. Mix the chile powder, lime zest and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a small bowl. Brush the salmon with 1 tablespoon of the lime juice and sprinkle with the chipotle seasoning mixture. Roast for 12 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish, until the salmon is just cooked through.
• Wrap the tortillas in 2 foil packets and place them in the oven with the salmon. Roughly mash the avocados with the remaining 2 tablespoons of lime juice, the Sriracha, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
• To serve, lay 2 warm tortillas on each of 6 plates. Place a dollop of the avocado mixture on one side of each tortilla, then some large chunks of salmon, and finally, some of the slaw. Fold the tortillas in half over the filling (they will be messy!) and serve warm.

GRILLED SALMON TACOS WITH AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high and line a large baking tray with foil. Mix the smoked paprika and cumin in a small bowl. Rub the spices over the salmon fillets and put them on the baking tray. Pop under the grill for 8-10 mins until cooked through.
• While the salmon cooks, combine the yogurt with the garlic and season to taste. In another bowl, combine the avocados, onion and tomatoes. Add the lime juice, season and scatter with coriander.
• Warm the taco shells in the oven, following pack instructions. Flake the salmon and serve with the tacos, avocado salsa, yogurt and lime wedges.

ROAST SALMON AND VEGETABLE TACOS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F
• Cut each fennel bulb in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 6 wedges. In a roasting pan or large baking dish, combine the fennel, tomatoes, garlic, lemon, oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Spread the mixture into a single layer. Roast until the fennel is tender, about 40 minutes.
• Season the salmon with the remaining salt and pepper. Remove pan from oven and place the fillets on top of the vegetable mixture.
• Return to oven and roast until the fillets are the same color throughout and flake easily, about 12 minutes, depending on thickness. Remove and discard the lemon before serving.
• Just before the salmon and vegetables are done, wrap the tortillas in foil and place them in the oven for 5 minutes.
• Using a fork, flake the salmon into chunks. Divide the salmon and vegetables among the tortillas.
• Sprinkle with the cilantro. Add a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
