Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Quarter lime.

Bake Salmon
2
  • Drizzle oven-ready tray with oil. Pat salmon* dry with paper towels and place, skin sides down, on tray. Rub all over with oil; season with salt, pepper, and half the Mexican Spice Blend (all for 4). (For 4, divide ingredients between two trays.)

  • Bake on top rack (be sure your oven has preheated!) until salmon is cooked through, 12-15 minutes. (For 4, place trays side by side on top rack.)

Make Slaw
3
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix together mayonnaise, half the vinegar, ½ tsp sugar, salt, and pepper (all the vinegar and 1 tsp sugar for 4 servings).
  • Add coleslaw mix to bowl; toss until evenly coated.
Warm Tortillas
4
  • When salmon has 5 minutes remaining, wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds.
Make Crema
5
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together sour cream and juice from half the lime. Add water
    1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
Assemble & Serve
6
  • Using a fork, flake salmon into pieces.

  • Divide tortillas between plates; fill with salmon. Top with mango chutney, creamy slaw, crispy onions, and lime crema. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.

Review summary

Updated on Apr 2026
  • Flavor: Many loved the complementary flavors and textures, though some found it mild and wanted more heat or seasoning.
  • Ease of prep: Super easy and quick to make, ready in under 20 minutes with minimal cleanup using the disposable tray.
  • Suggestions: Try adding guacamole, fresh avocado, or jalapeños for extra flavor; consider a vinegar-based slaw instead of mayo-based.
  • Portions: Good amount of salmon for most, though some felt there wasn't quite enough fish for all six tacos.

I was concerned that there were too many flavors going on, but they worked very well together!

Wow! Definitely in my top 3 favorite menu items. (Although I did add white rice to the tacos and a fresh avocado)

Good flavor, decent amount of salmon, but the coleslaw mix was going bad

Very messy and not as tasty as I hoped it would be. I usually really like salmon recipes too.

Salmon was perfect but not wild about the mango chutney and seasoning.

A nice option would be to offer low fat mayo for the coleslaw and light sour cream

A better flavor combination. The mango chutney needed more mango flavor to give a sweet contrast.

Quick and easy, flavor was just a little off with salmon and sauce.
