  • 1 teaspoon fresh cilantro, minced (or substitute ½ tsp ground coriander)
For marinade:
Instructions
  1. Preheat grill or oven broiler (with the rack 3 inches from heat source) on high temperature.
  2. Prepare taco filling by combining all ingredients.  Let stand for 10–15 minutes to blend the flavors.
  3. To prepare the marinade, combine the oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, coriander, and salt in a bowl. 
  4. Place salmon fillets in a flat dish with sides.  Pour marinade evenly over fillets.
  5. Place salmon fillets on grill or broiler.  Cook for 3–4 minutes on each side, until fish flakes easily with a fork in the thickest part (minimum internal temperature of 145 °F).  Remove from the heat and set aside for 2–3 minutes.  Cut into strips.
  6. To make each taco, fill one tortilla with ¾ cup filling and one salmon fillet.

  1. Combine chicken broth, onion, celery, carrots, parsley, pepper, thyme, and bay leaf in a Dutch oven; bring to a boil.
  2. Reduce heat to low; simmer until the onion and celery begin to soften, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir chicken into the simmering broth; cook until the chicken is no longer pink in the middle, 5 to 10 minutes.
  3. Remove and discard bay leaf. Stir rice and lime juice into the broth; cook and stir just until rice is hot and grains separate, about 1 minute. Garnish with lime slices.
Recipe Notes

Tip: aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.
