Salmon tacos

There's a million ways to make fish tacos, and this is my version. Because I'm a proud West Coast Canadian, I used salmon instead of the usual whitefish, and put a hint of maple syrup in the sauce. The best thing about this recipe is that everything can be made ahead of time, and assembled at the table.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

In a bowl, combine the sour cream, mayo, maple syrup, shallot, garlic, jalapeno, lime juice and lime zest with a pinch of salt. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

* Step 2

Combine the salt, chipotle powder, black pepper and cayenne and season the salmon. Add a splash of veg oil to a large pan on medium-high heat and sear the salmon for 5 to 6 minutes per side. Remove the salmon to a paper-towel lined plate to rest and drain. Can be served warm, or covered and chilled in the fridge until ready to serve.

* Step 3

Mix the rice wine vinegar and sugar. Pour it over the cole slaw mix and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes to overnight.

* Step 4

When ready to serve, stack the tortillas on a plate with a piece of paper towel between each tortilla. Microwave for 15 to 20 seconds until warm. Also, break the salmon up into large chunks with a fork.
