Step 1

In a medium bowl, stir together the cabbage, lime juice, salt, and cilantro. Set aside while you make the tacos, stirring occasionally.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and ground black pepper.

Step 3

Brush 1 tablespoon of oil all over the salmon. Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly all over the filets. (If your filets still have skin, you don’t need to season the skin side.)

Step 4

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the salmon for about 4 minutes, or until golden brown. Flip the salmon and cook for another 4 minutes, or until browned and the internal temperature reaches 145°F in the thicket portion of each filet. (If the filets are thick and haven’t reached temperature after 4 minutes, you can cover the skillet and continue to cook the filets for 2 to 5 more minutes.)

Step 5

Remove the salmon from the heat and flake the filets with a fork, discarding any skin. Assemble tacos with flaked salmon, slaw, and additional toppings of your choice. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
