Today’s Special: Spicy Mango Salmon Tacos

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that was inspired by a recent trip to a tropical island. The combination of spicy mango salsa and perfectly grilled salmon in these tacos is a burst of flavors that will transport you to a beachside paradise. Let’s dive into how to make these delicious and refreshing Spicy Mango Salmon Tacos!

Ingredients:

  • 2 fresh salmon fillets (400g)
  • 1 ripe mango, diced (200g)
  • 1 jalapeño, minced
  • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 4 small flour tortillas
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • grill pan
  • mixing bowl
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • tongs

I start by preheating the grill pan over medium heat. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, then place them on the grill pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and has a nice char on the outside.

While the salmon is cooking, mix together the diced mango, minced jalapeño, chopped red onion, lime juice, and cilantro in a bowl to make the spicy mango salsa. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Once the salmon is done, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before flaking it into bite-sized pieces with a fork.

Warm up the flour tortillas on the grill pan for a minute on each side until they are soft and slightly charred.

To assemble the tacos, place a generous amount of the flaked salmon onto each tortilla, top with a spoonful of the spicy mango salsa, and garnish with extra cilantro leaves if desired.

Serving:

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 800g, serving 4 people with an average serving weight of 200g. Each serving is estimated to be around 350 calories.

One unique tip I have for this recipe is to sprinkle some finely chopped macadamia nuts on top of the tacos for an added crunch and nutty flavor. It’s a game-changer!

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Salmon Tacos a try and make them your own with any personal twists or additions. Enjoy the tropical vibes in every bite!
