Scale

For the salmon:

  • 3 Tablespoon sweet chili sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 Tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 small chili pepper, minced
  • Salt & fresh ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 Salmon fillets (about 150g/5.5 lb each)

For the salsa:

  • 2 avocados, diced
  • 1 cup (150g) mango, diced

For serving:

  • 8 small corn tortillas

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, prepare the marinade: combine together the sweet chili sauce, olive oil, lime juice, honey, garlic and minced chili. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Place the salmon into a large ziploc bag and add the marinade. Close bag and massage seasonings into the salmon. Place in the refrigerator and let marinade for 20 minutes.
  3. Prepare the salsa: in a medium bowl combine the red onion, fresh cilantro, fresh lime juice, diced avocados and mangoes. Place in the refrigerator.
  4. Preheat the oven to 300F (150C).
  5. Remove the salmon from the marinade and transfer to a shallow dish, pouring the marinade over. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Remove and cut the salmon into chunks.
  6. Grill tortillas for 10-20 seconds each side in a grid or a sauté pan.
  7. Divide the salmon equally into the tortillas, add the mango-avocado salsa. Garnish with extra cilantro if desired, and top with sour cream.
