Smoked Salmon Wonton Tacos


  • Yield: 24-36 tacos 1x

Ingredients

  • 1 package wonton skins (3 1⁄2-in. squares)
  • 1 cup crème Fraiche or sour cream 

  • 1 lime, zested and halved
  • Dash of Sriracha 
1⁄4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/2 lb. Napa cabbage, thinly shredded
  • 1 cup small diced cucumber
  • ½ cup thinly sliced red onion
  • ½¾ lbs smoked salmon lox, separate into small pieces
  • Coconut oil, safflower or sunflower oil


Instructions

  1. Heat enough oil in a large skillet to fry the wontons. Fold wonton skins in half diagonally, then fry in the oil in a taco shape. (Be sure to keep the wontons open enough for stuffing with the seafood and condiments) Drain on a paper towel lined baking sheet.
  2. Combine crème Fraiche, chopped cilantro, lime zest and squeeze of lime juice, enough to make the crème Fraiche saucy; mix well. Place in the frig until ready to use.
  3. Next lightly toss together the cabbage and cucumber.
  4. Place the wonton shells on a platter and stuff with the smoked salmon, cabbage and cucumber and then top with the sliced onion. Drizzle the spicy sauce over each taco and serve.
  5. For an alternative to the Sriracha, use a ¼ teaspoon or more of chipotle chili powder. Makes an excellent substitute.
