Instructions

  • Prepare the air fried salmon bites according to the recipe and set aside.
  • To make the peach salsa: Wash and dry the peaches, remove the pits, and cut into ½-inch pieces. Add to a large mixing bowl along with the tomatoes, red onion, jalapeno pepper, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix gently until well-combined. Set aside to let the flavors blend.
  • To make the lime crema: In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream and lime juice until smooth.

Assemble the Salmon Tacos

  • Preheat a frying pan over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of avocado oil. Fry each tortilla for 30-45 seconds per side, or until golden and slightly crispy. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • Add a few tablespoons of cabbage or coleslaw mix to each of the warm tortillas. Top with 2-3 pieces of salmon bites, peach salsa, and a drizzle of lime crema. Garnish with fresh cilantro and enjoy immediately!

Notes

Storing instructions: Store leftover salmon in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Peach salsa is best fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
Reheating: to reheat salmon bites in the air fryer, wrap the salmon in foil and heat in a 350 degree air fryer for just a few minutes.
Oven Baked Salmon: Place the salmon bites on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet.  Bake in a preheated 425-degrees F oven for 4-5 minutes.
