Give salmon the "Jamaican jerk" treatment and bring the flavours of the Caribbean to taco night. For the quintessential experience, team the seasoned salmon with the refreshing crunch of coconut-sweet chilli slaw. Farmers across Australia are still experiencing the impacts of the recent heavy rains. This is affecting our supply of fresh veggies and as such, you may notice some changes to your ingredients. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!

• In a medium bowl, combine mild Caribbean jerk seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add salmon and gently turn to coat. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, cook salmon, skin-side down first, until cooked through, 5-6 minutes each side. • Transfer salmon to a plate, then allow to cool slightly. Roughly chop into bite-sized chunks.

TIP: The spice blend will char a little in the pan. Don't worry, this adds to the smokey flavour!

Review summary

Updated on July 2026
  • Flavour: The jerk seasoning and coconut-sweet chilli slaw were highlights for many, though some found the overall flavour mild or dry once assembled. Adding fresh coriander, a squeeze of lime, or avocado was a popular way to lift the dish.
  • Ease of prep: Most found this a genuinely quick and simple midweek meal, with minimal chopping and straightforward assembly.
  • Suggestions: Several reviewers recommended adding coriander, lime wedges, avocado, or a drizzle of extra sauce on top to boost flavour and moisture. Cutting cucumber into sticks rather than half-moons and keeping a close eye on the heat to avoid over-charring the spice rub were also noted.
  • Portions: A number of reviewers felt the salmon and tortillas were not quite enough for two, with some adding a side of chips or extra salad to make the meal more filling.
  • Leftovers: At least one reviewer found the components worked well the next day as a salmon salad, making it a handy lunch option.
