INGREDIENTS
- 16 oz. salmon fillet
- 1 T olive oil
- 1 1/2 tsp. Szeged Fish Rub
- 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp. chili powder
- 6 low-carb tortillas
- 2 cups thinly-sliced green cabbage
- 1 cup thinly-sliced red cabbage
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 4 T mayo
- 3 T fresh-squeezed lime juice
- 1/2 tsp. Green Tabasco Sauce (or more)
- Vege-sal or salt to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Let salmon thaw overnight in the fridge if frozen.
- Mix together the fish rub, ground cumin, and chili powder. Rub salmon on both sides with olive oil and the fish rub mixture.
- Then let salmon come to room temperature on the countertop while you make the slaw. Thinly slice green and red cabbage and slice green onions and chop cilantro if using.
- Combine mayo, fresh-squeezed lime juice, Green Tabasco Sauce, and Vege-Sal or salt to make the dressing.
- Toss together cabbage and green onions; then toss that with about HALF of the dressing. Stir in chopped cilantro if using and toss again.
- Save the rest to drizzle on the salmon in the tacos.
- Lay the salmon on the parchment paper or directly in the Air Fryer basket. We preheated the Air Fryer to 400F and cooked salmon 6 minutes without turning.
- If you want to cook the salmon on the grill or roast it in the oven, my recipe for Maple Glazed Salmon has good instructions for both those methods.
- While salmon cooks, heat each tortilla about 30-60 seconds in a dry hot pan, turning them once.
- Remove salmon from the Air Fryer, place in a bowl, and use a fork to shred apart.
- Assemble Salmon Tacos by putting slaw and pieces of salmon in the hot tortillas.
- Serve right away, with extra slaw dressing to drizzle over the tacos (highly recommended) and/or fresh lime pieces to squeeze on at the table.
