Instructions
Making BBQ Salmon Tacos involves straightforward steps that anyone can follow:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, mix the BBQ sauce with a pinch of salt and pepper.
2. Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillet in a shallow dish. Pour the BBQ marinade over it, ensuring it’s well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
3. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
4. Grill the Salmon: Place the marinated salmon on the grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until it flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
5. Warm the Tortillas: While the salmon is resting, warm the tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side or until they become pliable.
6. Prepare the Toppings: Chop the cilantro, slice the avocado, and get your shredded cabbage ready for assembly.
7. Assemble the Tacos: Flake the grilled salmon into bite-sized pieces. On each tortilla, place a portion of the BBQ salmon, a handful of shredded cabbage, avocado slices, and cilantro.
8. Finish with Lime: Squeeze fresh lime juice over the assembled tacos for added zest.
9. Serve: If desired, add any optional toppings like diced tomatoes or sour cream.
