If you'd like warm tortillas, wrap them in paper towels and microwave until they are warm and flexible, about 30 sec. Blackening is the Cajun technique of searing in a hot pan! It's all about getting that perfect crust from aromatic spices!
Wash and dry all produce.* Mince or grate 1 clove garlic (dbl for 4 ppl). Finely chop cabbage. Zest and juice the lime(s). Cut the tomato(es) into 1/4 inch cubes. Pat the salmon dry with paper towels. In a medium bowl, toss the salmon with the Southwest spice blend. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
In another medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, corn, cabbage, lime zest, 1 tbsp lime juice (dbl for 4 ppl) and 2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl). Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then the salmon. Pan-fry until 'blackened' or dark golden-brown and cooked through, 2 min per side. (TIP: Cook to a min. internal temp of 70°C/158°F.**) Using a wooden spoon, break up the salmon into bite-sized pieces.
Meanwhile, peel and cut the avocado(es) into 1/2-inch cubes. In a small bowl, add the avocado, garlic and remaining lime juice. Using a fork, mash together until creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
Divide the tortillas between the plates. Top the tortillas with salsa, salmon and dollop with the guacamole.
