Almond-Encrusted Salmon on Toast Points
Serrano peppers have such a thin skin that you don't need to bother removing it.
INGREDIENTS | SERVES 6
6 flour or corn tortillas
1 serrano pepper
¼ cup almonds
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 pound salmon fillet
¼ cup milk
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
Honey
Toast the tortillas under the broiler.
Mince the serrano and finely chop the almonds; mix together the serrano, almonds, and chili powder.
Clean the salmon in ice water, cut it into 6 portions, then dip it into the milk. Dredge in the almond mix.
Heat the olive oil to medium temperature and cook the salmon on each side for approximately 5 minutes, until thoroughly cooked.
Serve on tortillas, drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil and honey.
