Ingredients:
Tortillas of choice
1 5oz salmon filet
1/4 cup purple cabbage, thinly sliced
1/4 cup green cabbage, thinly sliced
1/4 cup shredded carrot
1/2 mango or pineapple, diced
1 lime, juiced
1 tsp white vinegar
2 tsp olive oil
Spices:

Optional toppings: hot sauce, avocado, jalapeno, cilantro, etc.
Directions:
1. Mix together all of the spices in a bowl then brush on top of the salmon filet to coat completely.
2. Heat half of the olive oil in a pan on medium/high heat. Once hot, add the salmon (skin side up/seasoned side down). Sear about 3-5 minutes until blacked. Flip over and sear another 3-5 minutes until cooked through. Using a fork, shred salmon into pieces. Set aside.
3. In a bowl, combine purple cabbage, green cabbage, carrot, mango, lime juice, vinegar and the remaining olive oil. Mix well.
4. Build your tacos by placing a handful of the slaw on each taco followed by a scoop of salmon. Add your favorite toppings and enjoy!
