Ingredients
3 (5-ounce) salmon filets, cut into bite-size chunks
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons honey
1-2 tsp. oregano
1 teaspoon smoked or regular paprika
Salt and pepper
Warm tortillas
Optional ingredients:
Shredded lettuce, cabbage or kale, purple onion, salsa, and avocado, for serving
Optional Garlic Lime Crema:
Roast 1-2 cloves of garlic with the salmon. Finely chop or grate the roasted garlic, then mix with 1/2 cup yogurt, 1 tablespoon honey, 2 teaspoons lime zest, and 2 tablespoons lime juice. Season with salt.
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425°F. On a baking sheet, toss the salmon pieces with olive oil, honey, paprika, oregano, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Arrange in a single layer. Roast 5-10 minutes or until the salmon is cooked to your liking. During the last minute, switch the oven to broil and broil until lightly charred. Set the salmon aside. Assemble the taco with salmon and optional ingredients.
Note
Red onion is a great source of prebiotic-rich fiber, to keep your gut and immune system strong. Purple-colored vegetables are rich in anthocyanin, which are helpful for blood flow and brain health. Red onions contain sulfur, great for healthy joints, and quercetin, important in lung health and mitigating the damages of stress to the body. If you don’t like the strong taste, soak the onions in ice water for 5 min. to eliminate the taste but maintain the delicious crunch.
