Ingredients (serves 4):
- 4 salmon fillets
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 limes, juiced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 flour tortillas
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure to remove the skin from the salmon fillets before cooking.
- Use a non-stick pan to prevent the salmon from sticking.
- Don't overcook the salmon - it should be cooked through but still moist and tender.
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced bell peppers, onion, cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
3. Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through.
4. While the salmon is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell pepper and onion mixture and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
5. To assemble the fajitas, place a tortilla on a plate and top with a salmon fillet and some of the bell pepper and onion mixture. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
