TILAPIA FISH TACOS
I found that these are a great way to get a bit more fish into our diet, plus they taste great. And by not frying the fish, these are pretty healthy, depending on your toppings. I love topping them with a mango or pineapple salsa and homemade coleslaw.

TILAPIA AND SHRIMP TACOS WITH CABBAGE SLAW
Mild tilapia and shrimp get a real kick from a marinade of lime juice and fresh herbs. A crisp, spicy cabbage slaw makes the perfect topper. Because tilapia fillets are thicker on one side than the other, they're hard to cook evenly. Here, we split them through the center seam so they can go on the grill separately.

Steps:
- For the marinade: Pulse the lime juice, olive oil, marjoram, cilantro, red pepper flakes, garlic clove and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a mini-food processor or blender until smooth. Cut each tilapia fillet in half through the seam, separating the thicker half from the thinner. Place the tilapia and shrimp in a large resealable plastic bag and add the marinade. Toss to coat, seal and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- For the slaw: Meanwhile, toss the cabbage with 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a large bowl and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes to soften it a bit. Whisk the sour cream, jalapenos and pickling liquid in another large bowl. Toss in the seasoned shredded cabbage and stir to coat. Season with black pepper, cover and set aside.
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Transfer the tilapia and shrimp to a rimmed baking sheet and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Brush the fillets with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Lightly oil the grill grates.
- For the taco bar: Wrap the tortillas in foil and set to the side on the heated grill while you grill the tilapia and shrimp.
- Grill the tilapia starting with the thicker pieces, 4 minutes for the thicker fillets, 3 minutes for the thinner ones. Use a spatula to loosen the fish and gently flip. Grill until just cooked through, another 2 to 3 minutes. Grill the shrimp until opaque, 2 to 3 minutes, flipping halfway. Serve with the tortillas, slaw, scallions, radishes and salsa.

Steps:
- Put the garlic, cilantro, lime zest, cumin, salt, and pepper in a small food processor bowl and pulse until combined, approximately 20 seconds. With the processor running, add the tequila. Put the tilapia fillets into a 1 gallon resealable bag, add the garlic mixture and move around to coat each fillet. Set aside at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Heat an electric nonstick griddle to 375 degrees F.
- Brush the griddle with the olive oil. Cook the fillets until just cooked through and opaque about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Cut into strips and serve in warm tortillas with crema, shredded red cabbage and lime wedges.
- Combine 9 ounces flour and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse 2 to 3 times.
- Add the lard to the flour mixture in 4 to 5 chunks and pulse 10 to 15 times until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. With the processor running, add the water in a steady stream just until a ball of dough begins to form, approximately 30 seconds.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of flour on a clean surface. Remove the dough from the bowl of the processor and knead until well incorporated and less sticky. Wrap the dough ball in plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
- Evenly divide the dough into 8 pieces and form them into round balls. Roll each ball into 7-inch rounds with a rolling pin on a lightly floured surface. Keep all of the dough balls covered with a tea towel.
- Heat an electric nonstick griddle to 375 degrees F.
- Put the tortillas, 2 to 3 at a time, onto the griddle and cook until light golden, about 4 minutes per side. Can be held for up to 2 hours, at room temperature, wrapped in a barely damp tea towel. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Microwave for 1 minute in the damp tea towel to reheat.
- Put the heavy cream in a 16-ounce microwave-safe glass jar. Microwave on high until the cream is just under 100 degrees F, about 30 to 40 seconds. Add the buttermilk, close the jar, and store in a warm place for 24 hours. The cream will have thickened to the consistency of thin yogurt.
- Add the chipotle chile and salt and process with an immersion blender, in the jar, until smooth, approximately 20 seconds. Refrigerate until ready to use.

TILAPIA TACOS
Having become an avid fisherperson I had to come up with new ideas for different types of fish. Although we do not catch tilapia here, the farm-raised tilapia at your local fish store is delicious!

This meal comes together in about a half hour total but when I am feeling especially lazy I will buy prepared mango/peach salsa at the store and use a package of prepared cole slaw mix plus the lime juice. Enjoy!
