Ingredients:
1 pound salmon filet
Corn tortillas or tostadas
Oil for frying
Cilantro Lime Slaw:
2 cups shredded cabbage
1 cup shredded red cabbage
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro
½ jalapeno, minced
3 tablespoons mayo
1 ½ tablespoon vinegar
Juice from ½ a lime
1 tablespoon honey
Salt & pepper to taste
Avocado crema:
1 avocado
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons cilantro
1 teaspoon salt
Method:
First we will prepare the cilantro lime slaw. It is best to let this rest in the refrigerator a few hours prior to serving.
Whisk together the mayo, lime juice, vinegar, and honey. Add in the remaining ingredients and mix together. Cover and place in the refrigerator.
Next prepare your Nativo Chimichurri according to the directions, add in a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Place in the refrigerator.
Now remove your salmon and pat it dry. Cover it in the Nativo seasoning and 1 teaspoon of salt.
In a pan over medium high heat cook your salmon to your liking. While the salmon is cooking make the avocado crema.
In a food processor combine all the ingredients and mix until smooth. Add salt to taste.
When the salmon is finished it is time to assemble your tostada. If you do not have tostadas, just fry up corn tortillas! Place a spoonful of crema on the shell, followed by the slaw, then top with a few pieces of salmon, and finish with Nativo Chimichurri.
¡SERVE AND ENJOY!
