Directions

the mango-avocado salsa:
Combine the mango, tomatoes, cucumber, onion, jalapeño, sugar, salt, cumin and lime juice in a large bowl. Let stand 10-15 minutes to blend flavors. Before serving, gently stir in avocado and cilantro.

the creamy jalapeno sauce:
Stir all ingredients together in a small bowl and adjust seasonings to taste. Let stand a few minutes to allow flavors to blend. Keep chilled until ready to serve.

Preheat the oven to 425°F. With racks on the top and bottom levels.
Marinate the salmon fillets in lime juice for 5 minutes. Place 2 baking sheets in oven, one on each rack and preheat 5 minutes.

Combine flour, cornmeal and seasonings in a shallow dish. Coat fillets on both sides. Carefully remove the top pan from the oven and spray with nonstick spray. Place fillets on pan and bake for 5 minutes. Spray both sides of tortillas with nonstick spray. Oven-toast tortillas on the second baking sheet after turning the fillets over. Toast tortillas 2 to 3 minutes. Remove fillets and tortillas from the oven.

To make tacos, fill tortillas with shredded cabbage, fish and mango salsa. Drizzle with jalapeño mayonnaise. Serve right away.
