Salmon Tacos

 5-6 corn tortillas
7-10 oz salmon fillet
salt and pepper to taste
olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced

few handfuls of baby spinach
cilantro sprigs
canned corn, drained
cheese, shredded

Preheat oven to the lowest setting. Place tortillas on a baking sheet in the oven to warm.

Season salmon fillet on both sides with salt and pepper.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and let sizzle about 1 minute.

Place salmon into the skillet and sear for 3-5 minutes or until it easily releases from the skillet. Flip over, turn heat to low, and cook another 3 minutes. It's ready when it flakes easily. Remove the salmon from the skillet.

Add the spinach and cilantro to the hot skillet and cook 2-3 minutes or until slightly wilted. Add in the corn and heat through.

Shred the salmon with two forks, then return to the skillet to heat through. 

Top warmed tortillas with salmon, greens, and corn. Add cheese if you want to. Quick and tasty meal!

Fish Tacos

Plan ahead... needs to chill...
 
Pickled Red Onions
1 jalapeno pepper, cut into 1/4 inch rings
2 large red onions, finely sliced
1 c. distilled white vinegar
2 tsp. kosher salt
1 c. water
1 c. sugar

Fish Tacos
8 corn tortillas, warmed
8 breaded white fish fillets or high-quality fish sticks, cooked
1/2 c. mayo
3-4 Tbsp. sriracha sauce
1/4 of a head of green cabbage, shredded
pickled red onions (recipe above)
1/2 c. cilantro, chopped

To make the picked red onions: Place jalepeño and onions in a medium mixing bowl.

Heat vinegar, water, sugar, and salt in a small skillet over high heat, whisking until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil, then pour over onions.

Press onions down with a spoon until submerged. Place a double layer of paper towels on top of onions and press down until completely saturated in liquid to keep onions submerged. Allow to sit until onions are softened and liquid has cooled, about 25 minutes.

Onions will keep indefinitely in a sealed container in the refrigerator.

The best way to eat these onions is to let them sit at least 24 hours in the fridge before using them on the tacos.

To make the tacos: Take a warmed tortilla and layer 1 fish stick or fillet in the center. Flake it up with a fork.

In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and sriracha. Stir. Spread a good amount over the fish stick.

Layer with a bit of cabbage, pickled red onions, and cilantro. Wrap and eat.

Do this 7 more times. You won't be disappointed.
