Salmon Fajitas



This was one of those last minute recipes again: "Let's see... I have salmon, tortillas, and random veggies.  Salmon fajitas??"  Sure why not. And it turned out really well! This may look like another fajita recipe that I have done, but this one is different enough to post about. So here's what I did:

2 lb of salmon, chopped into 1 inch squares
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 cup chopped peppers (any color)
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp chili powder
juice of 1/2 freshly squeezed lemon
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 tsp freshly shredded ginger
1 tbsp oil
4-5 wheat tortillas
cilantro for garnishing


Slice salmon into 1 inch cubes.


Combine all ingredients (except last 3) in a medium bowl. 


Cover and let sit in fridge for 30 min.  After 30 min, heat skillet on low-medium heat, pour oil in.  Add salmon mixture. 


Cover and stir occasionally, until salmon is flaky and onions are soft.  


Serve with warm tortillas.
