Think about it this way: in the time you’ve spent searching for a healthy recipe that actually tastes good, you could have already been drizzling some lime over Running With Frosting’s super simple salmon tacos.
Ingredients
Gorton's seafood
1 package Gorton’s Classic Grilled Salmon
2 corn tortillas
For the mango jicama slaw:
1/2 Mango, diced
1/4 Jicama, diced
For the dressing:
1/2 Mango, cut into small pieces for the dressing
1/2 Tbsp Agave Five
1 tsp Minced Garlic
1 Tbsp Rice Wine Vinegar
1/2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Lime, juiced
To serve:
1 cup broccoli slaw, or green cabbage of your choice
2 Tbsp Cilantro
Reduced Fat Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Preparation
Step 1
Bake the salmon filets in the oven, following the boxed instructions. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-17 minutes.
Step 2
While the salmon is baking, begin prepping your mango jicama slaw. Dice up ½ of a mango and ¼ of a jicama. Set aside.
Step 3
Combine the remainder of the mango (cut into small pieces), 1/2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar, juice from 1 lime, 1 tsp minced garlic and 1/2 tbsp agave (I use Agave Five) into a blender and blend until completely mixed.
Step 4
Toss the cut up mango and jicama that was set aside, 1 cup broccoli slaw (or green cabbage of your choice) and 2 tbsp fresh cilantro with the dressing that was just made in the blender.
Step 5
Once the salmon is done baking, take out the oven and shred with two forks until the salmon is broken up into small pieces.
Step 6
Top 2 corn tortillas with the salmon, the slaw and shredded cheddar cheese.
Optional: add taco sauce on top for added heat.
