Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 to 2 tbsp Everyday Seasoning Salt, recipe link here
2 fresh salmon filets (to grill or pan fry)
1/4 cup Avocado Sauce, recipe link here
2 to 3 cups pre-packaged cole slaw mix or shredded cabbage
1 lime, juiced
2 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
1 head of butter lettuce (aka Boston or bibb lettuce)
1 orange, sliced into sections (optional seasoning)

Steps:

To save time, you can prepare the Everyday Seasoning Salt and Avocado Sauce before starting (See recipe links to those below)
Season salmon fillets generously with Everyday Seasoning Salt (or your favorite seasoning). Pat fillet lightly to adhere and drizzle each with a little olive oil or avocado oil
Heat grill to medium high. Grill salmon 5-8 minutes, turning once. Cook just until fillets easily flake but are still moist. Remove from grill and set aside temporarily to cool. (Instead of grilling, salmon fillets can be pan-fried or baked if desired)
In a small mixing bowl, combine cole slaw mix (or shredded cabbage) with chopped cilantro leaves and juice of 1 lime. Salt to taste
Rinse butter lettuce leaves, and spin-dry in salad spinner, or lightly blot dry with paper towels. Select the best cup-shaped leaves to create your lettuce wrap tacos
Break apart cooled salmon fillets. Place salmon pieces inside lettuce wrap tacos, and sprinkle each with the cole slaw mixture
Finish each lettuce wrap taco with a healthy drizzle of Avocado Sauce

Tips:

Choose the best salmon fillets: Look for fillets that are firm and have a vibrant color. Avoid fillets that are mushy or have brown spots.
Cook the salmon to perfection: Salmon is best cooked to medium-rare or medium, so that it is still slightly pink in the center. Overcooking will make the salmon dry and tough.
Make a flavorful marinade: A good marinade will add flavor and moisture to the salmon. Use a combination of olive oil, herbs, spices, and citrus juice.
Grill the salmon over medium heat: This will help to prevent the salmon from sticking to the grill and will also help to cook it evenly.
Make a chunky guacamole: A chunky guacamole is the perfect topping for grilled salmon tacos. Use ripe avocados, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt.
Assemble the tacos: Place a grilled salmon fillet on a warm tortilla. Top with chunky guacamole, salsa, and shredded cabbage. Fold the tortilla in half and enjoy!

Conclusion:

Grilled salmon tacos are a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect grilled salmon tacos that will impress your family and friends.
