Instructions
Creating your Chipotle Honey Salmon Tacos with Pineapple Salsa involves straightforward steps. Follow this guide to ensure a delicious result:
1. Marinate the Salmon: In a small bowl, combine honey, chipotle chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture over the salmon fillets and let them marinate for about 10 minutes.
2. Prepare the Salsa: While the salmon marinates, mix together the diced pineapple, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeño (if using) in a separate bowl. Season with salt to taste. Set aside.
3. Cook the Salmon: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a little oil. Place the marinated salmon skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
4. Warm the Tortillas: In the same skillet or a separate one, warm the tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until soft.
5. Assemble the Tacos: Once the salmon is cooked, break it into large pieces. Place each piece on a tortilla, topping with pineapple salsa.
6. Add Optional Ingredients: If desired, add avocado slices to each taco for an extra creamy touch.
7. Serve: Enjoy your tacos warm and fresh, ideally with a squeeze of extra lime on top!
