This recipe is advantageous since it assembles rapidly and serves as an excellent method to utilize leftover cooked salmon. The salmon may be replaced with a protein of your preference, such as chicken or tempeh.

Ingredients
1 pound boneless salmon fillets, cut into 1 inch strips, sprinkled with salt and pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
8-12 corn tortillas
2 cups broccoli slaw (about 1/2 of a 12 oz package)
1 cup red onion, thinly sliced
10 radishes, sliced
1 tablespoon miso
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tsp freshly grated ginger
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 cup fresh apricots (about 8), halved & pitted
2 jalapenos, seeds removed
1/4 cup cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
To warm the tortillas, add 1/2 inch of water to the base of the steamer, which should be lined with a clean, heavy dish towel. Place the tortillas on the towel and fold the towel's edges over them to ensure coverage. Enclose the steamer with the cover and elevate the water to a boil. Allow the water to boil for precisely one minute, then deactivate the heat and permit the tortillas to rest in the covered steamer.
In a bowl, amalgamate the miso, mayonnaise, rice vinegar, sugar, and ginger to create the dressing for the broccoli slaw, then put aside.
Combine broccoli slaw, chopped onions, radishes, and sesame seeds in a bowl. Mix thoroughly and keep aside.
Combine apricots, jalapeños, onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until the ingredients reach the desired smoothness, approximately 20-30 pulses.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over high heat until it is nearly smoking. Gently position the salmon fillets in the pan with the skin facing downward. Cook for approximately 2-3 minutes, then gently shake to detach the fish from the pan. Invert the salmon fillets and cook the opposite side for 2-3 minutes. Exclude from the plan and place on a plate.
Incorporate the dressing into the slaw mixture and set aside.
To construct the tacos, place a portion of salmon on each tortilla and garnish with slaw and salsa.
