What You Need:
- 48 ounces salmon, about 1 inch thick with the bones and skin removed
- Kosher or sea salt
- McCormick Steakhouse Seasoning Grinder
- Smoked paprika
- 12 extra thin yellow or white corn tortillas
- 4 tablespoons salsa verde
- 4 tablespoons light sour cream
- 1/2 cup purple cabbage, thinly shredded
- Vegetable oil, if preparing crispy taco shells
- Lime wedges, optional
What You Do:
- Turn the broiler on.
- Ask your child to coat a broiling pan with non-stick cooking spray and lay the salmon onto the pan.
- Sprinkle the salmon with salt, steakhouse seasoning and smoked paprika.
- Place the salmon into the oven on the middle rack. Broil the fish for 10 minutes or until cooked through in the middle.
- While the fish is cooking, shred the cabbage and set it aside.
- Have your child carefully remove the salmon from the oven, roughly cut it into 12 4-ounce pieces, and set it aside.
- Heat a sauté pan over medium-high heat and warm the tortillas up for about 15 seconds on each side. Keep them warm in a cloth until you are ready to use them. If you prefer crispy taco shells, follow steps 7 through 11. Otherwise, skip to step 12.
- In a heavy pan, heat up about half an inch of oil over medium-high heat.
- Carefully lay a tortilla into the oil and let it cook for about 15 seconds.
- With tongs, flip the tortilla over and fold it in half. Hold the tortilla in place for about 15 more seconds. It can be a little tricky at first, so you may want to help your child until he gets the hang of it.
- Repeat with all the tortillas and set them on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Working quickly while the tortillas are still warm, place a tortilla on your work surface. Then fill it with a piece of salmon, a teaspoon of salsa verde, a teaspoon of sour cream, and some cabbage.
- Repeat step 12 until you have made all 12 tacos.
- Arrange them on a platter with wedges of lime, if desired.
- Serve and enjoy right away!
Serve the tacos with a black bean and corn salad and you'll have yourself a light, refreshing meal to perk up any family gathering or celebration!
