Easy fish tacos with salmon and mango salsa in corn tortillas

Fish tacos with mango salsa make a delectable weeknight dinner. The richness of the fish is both complemented and off-set by the smooth avocado cream and the flavourful salsa brimming with citrussy brightness. Sprinkling the filled corn tortillas with delicious Tex-Mex cheese brings all the flavours together and ensures an indulgent experience.

Experiment with seasoning and sauce

Before grilling it, you can marinate the salmon in a blend of lime juice for brightness, minced garlic, a touch of cumin for earthiness, and a dash of chilli powder or finely chopped jalapeño for heat. This combination imbues it with traditional Mexican flavours, perfectly aligning with the other components. A simple dash of hot sauce can also turn up the heat. Experiment with different flavour combinations to discover the best fish taco recipe.

Tips & Tricks

Tips & Tricks

You can toast the tortillas with the cheese in a frying pan, so the cheese gets crispy and sticks to the tortillas. The crispy fish tacos create an even greater contrast between, on the one hand, the spicy cheese and grilled salmon and, on the other, the cooling avocado cream.

  • What to serve with fish tacos?

    Serve flavourful, easy fish tacos with mango salsa and avocado cream as they are or with a side of tangy coleslaw, coriander-lime rice, or spiced black beans.

  • What cheese goes with fish tacos?

    Cheese is a great topping for fish tacos with salmon, and our Castello® Tex-Mex cheese is an excellent choice to elevate the dish. Its slightly spicy profile adds a zesty touch, offering an authentic note. Cheeses like crumbly queso fresco, salty cotija, or a mild Monterey Jack can also work well but will not add any heat.

  • What sauce goes with fish tacos?

    For tacos with salmon, a sauce or salsa that brings brightness, acidity, and a touch of sweetness as well as heat can perfectly complement the flavours. One such recommendation is mango salsa with red chilli, lime, and coriander. Its sweet, spicy, and tangy flavours complement the salmon beautifully.
