Citrus Mahi Mahi Tacos Recipes

Steps:

• Put a large piece of aluminum foil on a baking sheet; arrange the fish fillets side by side on the foil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Combine the achiote paste, lime juice, orange juice, oregano, cumin, scallions, chile powder, vinegar and brown sugar in a blender; pulse until smooth. Pour the mixture over the fish and turn to coat using tongs. Scatter the thyme sprigs and bay leaves over the fish, then top with orange slices. Cover the fish with another piece of foil and crimp the edges to tightly seal. Marinate in the refrigerator, 1 to 4 hours.
• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 475 degrees F. Transfer the fish to the oven and bake until tender, about 25 minutes. Remove the herbs and orange slices. Serve the fish in tortillas with assorted toppings.
• Trim 2 bunches spring onions; halve lengthwise, if large. Cook in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until tender and blackened, 5 to 8 minutes. Cut into pieces and sprinkle with lime juice and salt.

Steps:

• Season mahi mahi lightly with adobo seasoning and 1 dash of lime juice.
• Mix tomato, red onion, cilantro, scallions, and 2 tablespoons lime juice together in a bowl for the pico de gallo.
• Lightly spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray; turn stove to medium-high heat. Cook mahi mahi until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Reduce heat to low; cook, covered, until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.
• Place corn tortillas between damp paper towels; microwave until heated through, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
• Place 1/2 of each mahi mahi fillet on a tortilla. Top each with 2 slices avocado and 1 scoop of pico de gallo.

Steps:

• Preheat grill.
• Brush fillets with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Remove from grill and drizzle with some of the Citrus Vinaigrette. Let rest 5 minutes and then flake with a fork.
• Fill each fried tortilla with some of the mahi, top with the Red Cabbage Slaw, Tomato and Avocado Salsa, and drizzle with Charred Pineapple-habanero Hot Sauce.
• Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend for 1 minute.
• Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Gently combine all ingredients in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Heat a grill to high or preheat the broiler. Place the whole pineapple (do not peel it) on the grill and grill until the entire surface is completely black and charred. Remove from grill and let cool slightly. Peel the pineapple, remove the core and coarsely chop the flesh.
• Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; add the onion and cook until soft. Add the pineapple, pineapple puree, habanero and vinegar and cook until the mixture is completely soft, about 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Season with salt, pepper and honey, to taste. Strain the mixture into a bowl.

Steps:

• Combine all of the dry ingredients for the rub and mix well. Set aside. Brush the soy sauce over the flesh side of the fillet. Let set in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Remove from refrigerator and brush with the oil. Sprinkle with desired amount of dry rub. Let stand for 15 minutes before grilling.
• Cook the fillet with the flesh side facing the heat source. Cook until fork tender or 8 to 10 minutes or until just opaque. Cooking time will depend on how hot the heat source is. Let stand for about 5 minutes after removing from the heat. Flake the fish with a fork into a taco shell and top with Pico de Gallo. Add cilantro for garnish.

Steps:

• For pico de gallo:
• Combine first 7 ingredients in a medium bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• For crema:
• Whisk cream and sour cream in a small bowl to blend. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and hot sauce.
• For tacos:
• Build a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to high. Combine all dried spices in a small bowl. Sprinkle over fish. Brush grill grate with oil. Grill fish until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Using a fork, coarsely shred fish. Fill tortillas with fish, cabbage, and pico de gallo. Drizzle with crema. Squeeze fresh lime wedges over tacos.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the mahi-mahi with salt and pepper. Cook the fillets in the hot oil until the fish is golden brown on each side, and no longer translucent in the center, about 3 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the sour cream, lime juice, ginger, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper to taste; set aside. Gently combine the mango, pineapple, avocado, and jalapeno in a bowl.
• To assemble, place a cooked mahi-mahi fillet into the center of a warmed tortilla. Place a scoop of the mango salsa onto the fish, then drizzle with the sour cream sauce, and finish with a generous pinch of chopped cilantro.
