Instructions


Prepare your spicy mayo yogurt sauce and refrigerate it until you're ready to use it.

Begin by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, combine cubed salmon, olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, honey, salt, and pepper. Toss the salmon thoroughly in these seasonings. Place the seasoned salmon cubes onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring an even spread. Bake for 15-20 minutes.

Now, let's craft the avocado peach salsa: Combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl and mix them thoroughly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate it until you're ready to use it.

If desired, char your tortillas, and then assemble each taco with salmon cubes, cabbage, the peach avocado corn salsa mixture, thinly sliced jalapeños, and a drizzle of the spicy mayo yogurt sauce. Don't forget to garnish with additional cilantro. Enjoy! This recipe serves 4, with 2 salmon tacos for each serving.
