Easy Miso Salmon Tacos by Good Food
Flavorful miso-marinated salmon, crisp radish, and creamy avocado nestled in soft corn tortillas create speedy, vibrant tacos.
Serves: 2Prep: 15 minsCook: 10 mins
Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets, skin on or off
- 2 tbsp white miso paste
- 1 tsp sesame oil, plus extra for drizzling
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 limes
- 4-6 corn tortillas
- 1/2 cup radishes, thinly sliced
- 1 avocado, sliced or diced
- as needed salt
- as needed black pepper
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, sesame seeds, sugar, and the juice of one lime (about 1-2 tablespoons) until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or on a plate and generously coat them all over with the miso marinade.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the marinated salmon fillets skin-side down (if applicable) and cook for 4-6 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until the salmon is cooked through, flaky, and has a slightly caramelized, golden crust.
- While the salmon cooks, warm the corn tortillas. You can do this by heating them in a separate dry frying pan for about 20-30 seconds per side until pliable and slightly charred, or wrap them in foil and warm in the oven for a few minutes.
- Divide the warmed tortillas among serving plates. Flake the cooked miso salmon into bite-sized pieces using a fork. Distribute the flaked salmon evenly among the tortillas.
- Top the salmon with thinly sliced radishes and avocado. Drizzle with a little extra sesame oil, if desired, and serve immediately with extra lime wedges for squeezing over.
