Time 20m

Yield 4 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 cups shredded coleslaw mix
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
Juice of 1 lime, plus wedges for serving
3/4 teaspoon sugar
Kosher salt

Fresh cilantro, Mexican crema and salsa verde, for serving

Steps:

Transfer to a cutting board and slice or flake the fish.
  • Meanwhile, wrap the tortillas in foil and warm on the grill, about 4 minutes.
  • Divide the fish among the warm tortillas. Top with the slaw, cilantro, crema and salsa verde. Serve with lime wedges.

GRILLED FISH TACOS WITH KEY LIME SAUCE



Grilled Fish Tacos with Key Lime Sauce image

These fish tacos with a crunchy slaw and creamy, tangy sauce really hit the spot. Key limes are smaller, tarter and more aromatic than Persian limes and worth seeking out, but you can definitely use regular limes instead.

Provided by Megan Mitchell

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

5 cups shredded red cabbage
4 Key limes or 1 lime, juiced
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1 medium jalapeno, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
2 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
6 Key limes or 2 limes, juiced
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Grapeseed oil, for the grill or grill pan and for drizzling
1 1/2 pounds skinless white fish fillets, such as rockfish, snapper, grouper or cod
Ground cumin, for sprinkling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 small flour tortillas
2 medium tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch dice
Cilantro leaves, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • For the slaw: Combine the cabbage, lime juice, scallions, jalapeno and cilantro in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Let sit for 10 minutes, toss again and season again to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside for up to 2 hours at room temperature, or refrigerate for up to 2 days. (The longer it sits the better it gets.)
  • Preheat the grill over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F or heat a grill pan over medium heat. Clean and oil the grill grates.
  • Meanwhile, for the key lime sauce: Whisk the lime juice, mayonnaise and mustard together in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • For the fish and assembly: Place the fish on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle both sides with oil then liberally sprinkle with cumin, salt and pepper until both sides are coated. Grill the fish until you see grill marks and the flesh is white and easily flakes with a fork, 2 to 3 minutes per side depending on the thickness. (It's okay if the fish breaks since it will be broken up into large chunks for the tacos.) Transfer to a plate.
  • Grill the tortillas until lightly charred, about 1 minute per side.
  • Fill each tortilla with about 1/4 cup of the slaw, followed by some of the fish broken into large chunks. Drizzle with sauce, top with a scattering of the tomatoes and a sprinkling of cilantro leaves and serve immediately.

ZESTY LIME FISH TACOS



Zesty Lime Fish Tacos image

Provided by Food Network

Time 30m

Yield 8 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound tilapia fillets (about 4)
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 cup fresh lime juice (2 to 3 limes)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1 (16.3 oz) can Pillsbury(R) Grands!(R) Homestyle refrigerated buttermilk biscuits (8 biscuits)
6 tablespoons canola oil
1 1/2 tablespoons chipotle chiles in adobo sauce (from 7-ounce can), finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup salsa
1/2 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups shredded cabbage

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 200 degrees F. Cut each fish fillet lengthwise into 4 strips. In shallow glass dish, mix garlic and 7 tablespoons lime juice. Add the fish strips to the mixture and turn to coat. Let stand while preparing the biscuits.
  • On a work surface, mix the flour and cornmeal. Separate the dough into 8 biscuits. Press both sides of each biscuit into the flour mixture, then press or roll into 6 to 7-inch rounds.
  • In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil over medium heat. Add 2 biscuit rounds and cook about 1 minute on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Place on a cookie sheet and keep warm in the oven. Cook the remaining rounds, adding 1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil to the skillet for each batch. Wipe the skillet clean.
  • Heat the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fish and lime juice mixture, chipotle chiles, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook about 5 minutes, turning fish once, until fish flakes easily with fork.
  • In a small bowl, mix the salsa, sour cream, and remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice.
  • Using a slotted spoon, remove the fish and divide evenly among the biscuit rounds. Top each round with shredded cabbage and 1 to 2 tablespoons salsa mixture. Fold the biscuit rounds in half over filling. Serve with any remaining salsa mixture. Garnish with lime wedges, if desired.

GRILLED TEQUILA LIME FISH TACOS



Grilled Tequila Lime Fish Tacos image

Provided by Guy Fieri

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1/2 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 cups shredded red cabbage
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
3 tablespoons tequila
3 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons minced garlic
Juice of 1 lime
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Four 6- to 8-ounce boneless, skinless mahi mahi fillets (or other firm white fish)
Oil, for cooking
Sixteen 6- to 7-inch soft flour tortillas
1 cup Cilantro Lime Crema, recipe follows
2 cups crumbled Cotija cheese
Hot sauce, for garnish, if desired
2 limes, cut into wedges
8 ounces sour cream
1/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 limes, juiced
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • For the cabbage: In a large mixing bowl, combine the vinegar, sugar and salt and mix together well. Add the cabbage and stir to coat everything evenly. Allow to marinate for 15 minutes. Fold in the cilantro and set aside until ready to use.
  • For the fish marinade: In a large mixing bowl, combine the tequila, cumin, garlic, lime juice and some salt and pepper. Portion the fish into 1-inch cubes and add to the marinade. Set aside to marinate for 4 to 5 minutes.
  • To cook the fish: Heat a flat top grill to high and coat with a little oil. Skewer 4 to 5 pieces of fish on each skewer. Place the skewers on the grill and cook until the fish is white and cooked through, about 1 minute on each side and about 4 minutes total. Remove the skewers and allow to rest.
  • Warm the tortillas in batches on the grill for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove the tortillas to a towel-lined foil pouch and cover loosely to keep warm.
  • To build the tacos, drizzle a little Cilantro Lime Crema on a tortilla. Top with some strained red cabbage mixture and then place a skewer of fish on top. Slide out the skewer so the fish stays on the taco, and then finish with more lime crema. Garnish with some crumbled Cotija and hot sauce and serve with a wedge of lime on the side. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, milk, cilantro, garlic, cumin and lime juice and chill for 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper.

  • For the avocado cream:.
  • Puree the yogurt, avocados, jalapeno, lime zest and juice, cilantro and hot sauce to taste in a food processor until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • For the pico de gallo:.
  • Combine the oil, tomatoes, garlic, onions, bell peppers, jalapeno, lime juice and cilantro in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • For the fish:.
  • Combine 2 cups flour, the cornstarch, baking powder and some salt in a bowl. Quickly stir in the beer and eggs (don't worry if there are a few lumps).
  • Heat the oil in a deep fryer to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  • Put the remaining 1 cup flour in a shallow dish. Dredge the fish lightly in the flour. Dip the fish in the beer batter to coat, and then fry until crisp and golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes.

Add the roasted peppers, vinegar, coriander, garlic and sugar and cook for 1 minute. Add 2 cups (500 ml) water and lower the heat to medium-low. Cook until almost all the liquid has evaporated, about 30 minutes. Stir in the cilantro and season with salt and pepper.
