Ingredients
 
 

  • 4 salmon filet portions thawed if frozen
  • 2 tsp Mexican-style chili powder
  • kosher salt
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil (or other high-heat cooking oil)
  • 2 cups packaged slaw mix
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ - 1 whole jalapeno (depending on heat preference), minced
  • ½ tsp cumin seeds toasted
  • 1 ripe avocado sliced
  • 4 hamburger buns toasted if desired

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the grill on medium for 10 minutes, or preheat your favourite skillet or pan on medium.
  • Meanwhile, pat the salmon dry with paper towels and rub with the chili powder and ½ tsp salt.
  • Oil the cooking grates and place salmon skin-side down over direct heat. Close grill and cook for about 3 minutes.
  • When salmon lifts easily from the grates, it’s properly seared. Flip salmon and continue cooking until it reaches 125-130ºF internal temperature (1-3 minutes more, depending on fish thickness and your grill). Transfer salmon to a plate and cover it to rest.
  • Combine the slaw mix with the mayo, jalapeno, cumin seeds and about ⅓ tsp more salt.
  • Slice the buns in half crosswise and add a salmon portion to one side. Top with avocado slices and slaw mixture.
