Servings: 8 tacos
- 8-10 corn tortillas
- 1 piece fresh salmon (about 1/2 pound)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- Garlic powder to taste
- Ground cumin to taste
- Chili powder (optional) to taste
- Salt & pepper to taste
Sauce:
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (I used 2%)
- Juice from 1/2 lime
- 1 clove garlic minced
- Handful fresh cilantro chopped
Toppings:
- 1 avocado diced
- Iceberg lettuce shredded, to taste
- Lime wedges to taste
Preheat oven to 375F. Move the rack to the middle position. Line a baking sheet with foil. Wrap the tortillas in foil and put them in the oven right away.
Place a piece of salmon on the baking sheet and coat it with olive oil. Gently sprinkle with garlic powder, ground cumin, chili powder, and salt & pepper. Cook in oven for 10-15 minutes or until it flakes easily with a fork.
Meanwhile, combine the sauce ingredients. Set aside. Prepare the avocado and lettuce.
When the salmon is done, roughly cut it into bite-size pieces using a fork. Assemble tacos immediately. Serve with extra lime if desired.
- If you're feeding 4+ people, I suggest buying a large piece of salmon or 2-3 smaller ones.
