Step 1

place chopped garlic and Serrano in 1 tbs olive oil and sauté over medium heat until soft. DO NOT BURN! remove and save in small dish. This will be the sauce/dressing to spoon over salmon as you build your taco. when cooled add oj concentrate and water. mix well.

Step 2

Cook salmon sections in 1 TBS evoo 3 to 4 minutes on each side. S and P to taste. Cook fish until golden brown and opaque inside. when fish is almost done you can remove from heat and cover pan.
Step 3

while fish is cooking chop cilantro, slice red onion, peel and prep red onion. I put all these ingredients in small serving dishes. Prepare tortillas however you like.
