Salmon Fish Tacos With Asian Slaw Recipes

SALMON TACOS

Steps:

• Prepare the slaw: In a mixing bowl, mash the avocado, Greek yogurt, and olive oil together until mostly smooth.
• Stir in the salt, lime zest and juice, and hot sauce.
• Stir in the slaw and cilantro. Taste and adjust hot sauce and salt as desired. Cover with plastic, pressing the plastic against the top of the mixture to deter the avocado from browning, and refrigerate until ready to serve. (The slaw can sit for several hours and will taste better if it rests for at least 1 hour; if you don't have time, the resting while you prep the salmon will still give you good results.)
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking dish or rimmed baking sheet large enough to hold the salmon with parchment paper or foil. Place the salmon in the center and pat dry. Brush the top of the salmon with the oil.
• In a small bowl, stir together the chipotle powder, garlic powder, lime zest, and salt.
• With a small spoon, sprinkle it evenly over the top of the salmon. (Reserve the zested lime for serving).
• Transfer the dish to the oven and bake the salmon for 12 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish (a 1-inch fillet will take around 12 minutes), until the salmon is just cooked through and reaches 140 to 145 degrees F on an instant read thermometer (fish is done at 145; once mine hits 140, I remove it to a plate, cover it, and let it rest for several minutes; the carryover cooking will finish the rest).
• Cut the zested lime in half or into quarters and squeeze the juice over the top of the salmon. To serve, pile the salmon and slaw into the warmed tortillas. Top with cheese. Enjoy warm, with a dash of extra hot sauce as desired.

ASIAN SALMON TACOS

Steps:

• Toss salmon with hoisin sauce. In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook salmon until it begins to flake easily with a fork, 3-5 minutes, turning gently to brown all sides., Serve salmon and lettuce in tortillas; sprinkle with sesame seeds. If desired, top with salsa.

SALMON FISH TACOS WITH ASIAN SLAW

Steps:

• Whisk vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, soy sauce, and lime juice together in large bowl. Add coleslaw mix and green onions; toss to coat and let stand for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season salmon with salt and pepper and place in the hot skillet. Saute until salmon is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from heat and flake.
• Heat tortillas in a dry skillet over medium-high heat until slightly crispy, 30 to 60 seconds per side.
• Drain slaw mixture, then spoon into the center of each tortilla and add flaked salmon on top.

AMAZING SALMON TACOS

Steps:

• Toss cubed salmon in cumin and chili powder. Set aside.
• Heat large skillet over medium and cook yellow onion 2 minutes, until it begins to soften.
• Turn heat up to medium high. Add salmon to skillet. Lightly sear salmon cubes for about 2-3 minutes, turning gently (don't break the salmon into pieces!).
• IMPORTANT: Do not over cook the salmon. This juicy recipe will keep steaming the salmon. The salmon should still be firm in the middle of the cube when you proceed to the next step.
• Return heat setting to medium. Add canned tomatoes and chilies, cilantro and green onions. Gently incorporate and heat through.
• Squeeze quartered limes over the salmon mixture, give it a quick stir, and plate up the salmon (I usually drain a little liquid off at this point).
• Serve with warm flour tortillas, quality salsa, sour cream, sliced avocado, and crisp romaine lettuce.

EASY FISH TACOS WITH SLAW

Steps:

• Mix coleslaw mix, cilantro, yogurt, peppers, vinegar, adobo sauce, and salt for slaw together and set aside in the refrigerator.
• Cut fillets into 2-ounce portions. Season fish with 1 teaspoon salt, dried cilantro, cumin, and oregano. Allow to rest while combining flour, cornstarch, 1 teaspoon salt, and cayenne in a shallow dish.
• Dip each fillet in flour mixture, shaking off excess. Set aside for at least 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 inch of oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Fry fish in the hot oil until golden and it flakes easily with a fork, about 3 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels.
• To assemble, top a tortilla with one fillet, 1/4 cup slaw, and slices of avocado and tomato if desired.

THAI SALMON ON ASIAN SLAW

Steps:

• Place all the dressing ingredients (except water) in a blender container and process until smooth. Thin with water if necessary, it should be a little thicker than a vinaigrette. Reserve 2 tablespoons for basting fish.
• In a large bowl combine the broccoli slaw, cucumber, green onion and cilantro; drizzle with dressing and toss to coat; stir in coarsely chopped peanuts, reserving a small amount for garnish, add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste; mix well. Set aside while cooking salmon.
• In a heavy skillet heat the olive oil unit hot; add salmon fillets, skin side down, baste with reserved dressing. Sear for 3 to 4 minutes; turn the salmon, remove skin and brush with dressing; continue to cook for an additional 3 minutes. Turn and sear until salmon is done and flakes easily when tested with fork, approximately 1 to 2 minutes more.
• To serve, divide the slaw on 2 serving plates and top with cooked salmon; garnish with reserved peanuts.
