Ingredients

Scale

For Salmon:

  • 1 lb salmon filet
  • Juice of 1/2 lime
  • 1-2 tbsp blackening seasoning
  • 2 tsp avocado oil or other neutral flavored oil

For Pineapple Salsa:

  • 1/4 cup red onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup fresh pineapple, diced
  • 1 small jalapeño, seeded and diced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
  • Juice of 1/2 lime

For Tacos:

  • 4-6 warmed corn tortillas
  • 1 diced avocado
  • Lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Prepare the salsa. Dice onion, pineapple, jalapeño and cilantro. Add to a small bowl with lime juice and stir to combine.
  2. Use a thin filet knife (I LOVE this inexpensive one!) to remove skin from salmon. Squeeze lime over fish and rub both sides generously with blackening seasoning.
  3. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear salmon, undisturbed, on both sides for 3-4 minutes per side, or until a crust forms. Lower heat and continue cooking until salmon is cooked through, 5-10 minutes, depending on thickness.
  4. While fish is cooking, warm the tortillas.
  5. Use a fork to flake salmon into large chunks. Serve with warm tortillas, pineapple salsa, avocado and lime wedges.
