Crispy Salmon Tacos

Take your Taco Tuesday up a serious notch with this delicious dish. Crispy panko-crusted salmon fillets are crunchy on the outside, yet soft and juicy on the inside and full of flavor in every bite. The salmon is tucked into flour tortillas and topped with pico de gallo and Chef Ruben's signature habanero-passionfruit sauce for a fruit kick of heat. Paired with a light coleslaw, these fish tacos will transport you to a beach, so matter where you enjoy them.

Salmon Burger with Sriracha Aioli

The luscious salmon burger is a thing of beauty. Chef John plates a perfectly cooked, moist 6-oz salmon patty flavored with dill, garlic, red and yellow peppers on a plush potato bun with gem lettuce, tomato, red onion, and Sriracha aioli. Paired with a side of crunchy, crispy tater tots on the side, this is the ideal spring or summer dinner.
