Yesterday was “Taco Tuesday” so I decided to combine two of the most trendy ingredients of the summer, salmon and chipotle, in a new dish!
Salmon is the superfood fish that is packed with Omega 3’s which help lower cholesterol and blood pressure, while keeping your mind sharp and skin glowing!
This colorful and vitamin-rich fish has been one of the most searched foods of the summer and I just so happen to think that I’ve created the perfect salmon recipe!
Chipotle and Sriracha topped the list of summer spice favorites, with no surprise to me!
These Chipotle Lime Chicken Fajita Skewers are one of the most popular recipes on the blog!
The chipotle honey glaze on this recipe for salmon tacos is slightly sweet, slightly spicy and oh-so-scrumptious!
What You’ll Need
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tsp chipotle powder
- ½ tsp cumin
- ½ tsp paprika
- 1 tbsp fresh cilantro
- 1 lb salmon
- 8 corn tortillas
- 1 cup Mango Salsa (← click link for recipe)
- ½ cup red cabbage (shredded)
- ½ cup green cabbage (shredded)
How To Make Salmon Tacos
Preheat grill to medium-high or oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, whisk the honey, lime juice, chipotle, cumin, paprika and cilantro together.
Place the salmon in a foil “basket” and cover with the glaze.
Place the salmon on the grill or into the oven for 20 minutes.
Shred the salmon with a fork and place into a warm corn tortilla. Top with a drizzle of the glaze, mango salsa and cabbage.
Now that’s one awesome “Taco Tuesday” if you ask me!
The glazed salmon was so flavorful, I kept eating it right out of the foil as I was shredding it for the tacos! To be honest, I’m just lucky any of the salmon actually made it into a tortilla 😉
