Basic Fish Tacos Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine green cabbage, red onion, sour cream, lime juice, and salt. Chill until ready to serve.
• In a bowl, mix cayenne, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Season each tilapia fillet on both sides with the seasoning mix.
• Over medium-high heat, cook 2 fillets at a time for 8 minutes, flipping halfway. Repeat for the remaining fillets.
• Using a fork, break apart the fillets into bite-size pieces.
• Right before serving, heat the corn tortillas in the pan over high heat. Remove from the pan and assemble the tacos with the cabbage slaw and tilapia.
• Garnish with cilantro and lime juice.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• To make the sauce, put all of its ingredients in a food processor, blitz until smooth and season well. Add a splash of water if you need to, to make it a consistency that can be drizzled, then pour into a bowl or jug and chill until needed.
• To make the fish, whisk the lime juice, oil and fajita seasoning in a bowl, add the cod and toss well. Fry the cod in a non-stick frying pan over a high heat for 5 mins until beginning to flake, but not falling apart. Divide between the tortillas, each one drizzled with the sauce and topped with a spoonful of our curtido and our tomatillo salsa.

Steps:

• Mix sour cream and lime juice together in a large bowl; season with salt and black pepper. Reserve about half the mixture in another bowl for serving. Mince half the jalapeno pepper; save other half for later. Toss cabbage, green onions, and minced jalapeno half in remaining sour cream mixture until slaw is well mixed.
• Heat olive oil and remaining jalapeno half in a large skillet over medium heat; swirl oil to coat skillet evenly. Season tilapia fillets with salt and pepper. Pan-fry fish strips in the skillet in 2 batches until fish is golden brown and easily flaked with a fork, 5 to 6 minutes. Discard jalapeno half.
• Heat tortillas in the microwave on high until warm, 20 to 30 seconds.
• Serve fish in warmed tortillas topped with cabbage slaw, reserved sour cream mixture, and cilantro.

Steps:

• Make the cabbage slaw: Combine the cabbage, onion, tomato, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt in a large bowl. Toss well, then set aside.
• Make the crispy fish: In a large bowl, combine the flour, Old Bay, and baking powder. Add the beer and whisk until smooth. Let sit for 15 minutes.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot until it reaches 350°F (180°C).
• Coat the fish in the batter, then transfer to the oil and fry until golden on the outside and cooked through, 5-7 minutes. Drain the fish on a wire rack set over a baking sheet lined with paper towels.
• Make the avocado crema: Add the avocados, sour cream, lime juice, and salt to a blender and blend until smooth.
• To assemble the tacos, add a bit of the cabbage slaw to a warmed tortilla. Top with a piece of fried fish, avocado crema, and sliced radish.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Place the fish in a baking dish and squeeze a lime half over it. Add the garlic, cumin, chili powder, and 1 tablespoon of the oil. Season with salt and pepper and turn the fish in the marinade until evenly coated. Refrigerate and let marinate at least 15 minutes. Meanwhile, make the slaw and warm the tortillas.
• Combine the cabbage, onion, and cilantro in a large bowl and squeeze a lime half over it. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary; set aside.
• Warm the tortillas by heating a medium frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tortilla at a time, flipping to warm both sides, about 5 minutes total. Wrap the warm tortillas in a clean dishcloth and set aside while you prepare the fish.
• Brush the grates of a grill pan or outdoor grill with oil and heat over medium-high heat until hot. Remove the fish from the marinade and place on the grill.
• Cook without moving until the underside of the fish has grill marks and is white and opaque on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and grill the other side until white and opaque, about 2 to 3 minutes more. (It's OK if it breaks apart while you're flipping.) Transfer the fish to a plate.
• Taste the slaw again and season as needed with more lime juice. Slice the remaining lime halves into wedges and serve with the tacos. To construct a taco, break up some of the cooked fish, place it in a warm tortilla, and top it with slaw and any optional garnishes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Place cod fillets in a casserole dish and drizzle with olive oil and 1 tablespoon lime juice. Season with cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and break apart the fish in the baking dish with 2 forks.
• Meanwhile, combine sour cream, garlic, lime zest, 1/4 teaspoon lime juice, and a pinch of salt for crema in a bowl. Combine cabbage, 1/4 teaspoon lime juice, and vinegar for cabbage slaw in another bowl.
• Warm tortillas in the microwave on default mode with a dampened paper towel draped over, 30 to 45 seconds.
• Assemble tacos by layering each tortilla with cod, cabbage slaw, crema, and tomato. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Prepare fish filets or fish sticks according to package directions.
• Separate 6 tortillas on a plate and microwave till warm, aprox. 30 seconds.
• Combine coleslaw and cilantro. Sprinkle the juice of the lime over coleslaw and toss.
• Mix mayo and Russian dressing for the sauce.
• Serve with Pico De Gallo and sliced avocado.
• Assemble and enjoy.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Mix together chili powder, paprika, cumin, onion powder, salt, and pepper for tacos in a small bowl until well combined.
• Brush 2 tablespoons oil all over the prepared pan, then add mahi mahi fillets. Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon oil over the fillets and rub to coat. Sprinkle spice mixture evenly over both sides of the fillets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes evenly with a fork and drippings are caramelized, 10 to 12 minutes.
• While the fish is baking, prepare slaw by combining coleslaw mix, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, oil, lime juice, vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl; toss until well combined.
• Stir together sour cream, chipotle in adobo, adobo sauce, and salt for crema together in a small bowl.
• Char tortillas over a gas flame.
• Remove fish from the oven and flake it with a fork.
• Fill tortillas with fish and slaw. Drizzle with crema and squeeze lime wedges over top.
