Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 salmon fillets (about 4 oz each), skinless
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage (red or green)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 8 small corn tortillas

Method
 

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels.
  2. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, chili powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and salt. Brush the mixture over the salmon fillets.
  3. Place the salmon fillets in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  4. While the salmon cooks, prepare the slaw by combining shredded cabbage, cilantro, Greek yogurt, and lime juice in a bowl. Toss until well mixed.
  5. Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Flake the cooked salmon into large pieces.
  6. Assemble the tacos by dividing the salmon and slaw among the tortillas. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra spice, add a dash of hot sauce or sliced jalapeños to the slaw. To keep tortillas warm longer, wrap them in a clean kitchen towel. Leftover salmon can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
