Steps

1. 1

   Finely chop the parsley and the first handful of coriander. Grate the three chimichurri garlic cloves and finely chop the red chilli.

2. 2

   Combine the parsley, coriander, garlic, chilli, dried oregano, red wine vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, ½ teaspoon salt, and black pepper to make the chimichurri. Reserve some separately for serving.

3. 3

   Cut the pineapple into chunky wedges. Cut the small red onion into wedges, halve the lime, and prepare the red pepper.

4. 4

   Toss the pineapple, onion, red pepper, and lime with 1 teaspoon olive oil and a pinch of salt. The source identifies this as charred pineapple salsa but gives no specific charring method or time.

5. 5

   Massage the chimichurri and other seasonings over the whole skin-on sea bass, coating it evenly. Let the fish rest briefly; no resting duration is specified.

6. 6

   Marinate the boneless, skin-on chicken thighs with 1 tablespoon olive oil, chipotle paste, smoked paprika, cumin, grated garlic, lime juice, honey, and salt and pepper.

7. 7

   Arrange the salsa fruit and vegetables and the seasoned fish and chicken in the Ninja Dual Zone air fryer. Cook the fish and chicken simultaneously using the appliance's independent zones; the source does not provide settings, temperatures, or cooking times.

8. 8

   Halve the corn cobs. Season them with 1 teaspoon olive oil, ½ teaspoon smoked paprika, a pinch of salt, and the juice of ½ lime. The source lists the corn as charred but does not specify its cooking method or duration.

9. 9

   Blend the pineapple salsa, as indicated in the serving list.

10. 10

    Serve the fish and chicken in small corn or flour tortillas. Garnish the fish tacos with fresh coriander, lime wedges, thinly sliced red onion, and reserved chimichurri. Serve the chicken tacos with the other small tortillas, crumbled feta, finely sliced red onion, fresh coriander, lime wedges, charred corn, and pineapple salsa.

Notes

The post provides ingredient lists and says the salsa vegetables, fish, and chicken are cooked in a dual-zone air fryer, but it does not specify appliance settings, temperatures, cooking times, detailed charring instructions, or an exact resting duration. The chicken seasoning is written as “1 tsp salt / pepper,” so the amount for pepper is unclear. The source lists 8 small tortillas for each taco option.
