20-Minute Blackened Salmon Tacos with Corn-Avocado Salsa

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
  • 2 teaspoons blackening seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 small corn tortillas
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Rub both sides of each fillet with blackening seasoning.
  2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and heat until shimmering.
  3. Place the seasoned salmon in the hot skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  4. While the salmon is cooking, combine the diced avocado, corn, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix gently to combine.
  5. In a separate skillet or directly over a gas flame, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
  6. Once the salmon is cooked, flake it into large pieces. Place a portion of the salmon onto each tortilla and top with a generous scoop of corn-avocado salsa.
  7. Serve the tacos warm, garnished with extra cilantro or lime wedges if desired.

Notes

  • This recipe takes about 20 minutes to prepare.
  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Adjust the spice level by varying the amount of blackening seasoning.
