Method

Cooking the Salmon

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salmon

    Season the salmon fillets with olive oil, salt, and black pepper on both sides. Squeeze fresh lime juice over them.

  2. 2

    Cook the Salmon

    Preheat a skillet or plancha over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and let rest.

Making the Jalapeno Slaw

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, minced jalapeno, and chopped cilantro.

  2. 4

    Dress the Slaw

    Add lime juice and salt to the bowl. Toss everything together until well combined. Set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Making the Avocado Crema

  1. 5

    Blend the Crema

    In a blender, combine the ripe avocado, sour cream, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust salt to taste.

Making the Chipotle Aioli

  1. 6

    Mix the Aioli

    In a bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, chipotle in adobo sauce, lime juice, and minced garlic until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Making the Salsa Roja

  1. 7

    Combine Salsa Ingredients

    In a bowl, combine diced tomatoes, chopped onion, minced jalapeno, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

Assembling the Tacos

  1. 8

    Warm the Tortillas

    Heat the corn tortillas on a skillet or in the microwave until warm and pliable.

  2. 9

    Assemble the Tacos

    On each tortilla, place a portion of the cooked salmon, top with jalapeno slaw, drizzle with avocado crema and chipotle aioli, and add a spoonful of salsa roja. Serve with lime wedges.
