Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Bake the Crispy Taco Triangles 🌮

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the tortillas into quarters to form triangles. Arrange them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush lightly with olive oil, and bake for 7–10 minutes until golden and super crispy.

2. Blend the Mango Cilantro Sauce 🥭

In a blender or small food processor, combine the diced mango, Greek yogurt, fresh cilantro, lime juice, turmeric, and a pinch of salt. Blend on high until smooth, vibrant, and creamy.

3. Cook the Sweet Chili Salmon 🐟

In a bowl, toss the cubed salmon with sweet chili sauce, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon cubes and cook for 4–5 minutes, turning carefully until caramelized on the outside and tender inside.

4. Mix the Salad 🥗

In a small bowl, gently toss together the diced cucumber, diced avocado, cherry tomatoes, and sliced red onion.

5. Assemble & Serve ✨

Spread a generous spoonful of the creamy mango cilantro sauce over each crispy tortilla triangle. Top with the fresh avocado-cucumber salad and sticky sweet chili salmon cubes. Garnish with red onion, extra cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice!
