Grilled Fish Tacos Recipes

Steps:

• Combine all marinade ingredients. Cut the fish into several large pieces and add to the marinade.
• Refrigerate for 1 to 3 hours (no longer or you'll have ceviche). Drain the fish and discard the marinade.
• Half an hour before cooking, clean the grill thoroughly with a brush and wipe it down with an oil-dampened rag. Preheat the grill on high. Grill the fish until it is barely firm to the touch and opaque through the center. Do not overcook.
• Remove to a platter and break into chunks to serve. Keep loosely covered.
• To serve, hold a tortilla in your hand and add a spoonful of avocado. Add a few pieces of fish, a squeeze of lime, mango salsa; finish with the optional toppings.
• Note: The fish may also be baked or sauteed.

Steps:

• Directions for slaw:
• Combine apple cider vinegar, cilantro, lime zest, lime juice, sugar, salt and pepper in a medium bowl; mix until smooth and creamy. Add cabbage and toss to combine. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Directions for tacos:
• Combine ingredients for the basting sauce into bowl and mix. Set aside. Oil the grill rack and Preheat grill to medium high. Grill Mahi filets until they are cooked through approximately 3 minutes per side. Continuously baste Mahi- Mahi, turning fish over only once.
• While Mahi is on the grill, heat tortillas until soft in the microwave or in the oven. Option 1: In the Microwave, wrap stacks of up to 12 tortillas in barely damp paper towels; microwave on High for 30 to 45 seconds. Wrap tortillas in a clean towel to keep warm. Option 2: In the Oven, wrap stacks of 6 tortillas in foil; place in a 375 degrees F oven for 10 to 15 minutes. Wrap tortillas in a clean towel to keep warm.
• When Fish is white and flakey, remove from heat. Carefully cut fish into large chunks. Place fish into tortillas and build your taco, starting with fish, and slaw and toppings of your choice.
• Combine all ingredients. Season with salt and pepper.
• Mix diced tomatoes, onions and cilantro in a large bowl. Add the lime juice and salt stir.
• Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Set aside and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• For the marinade: Combine the oil, cilantro, mint, scallions, cumin, paprika, cayenne and some salt and pepper. Marinate the fish at least 6 hours, but preferably overnight.
• For the salsa verde: Place the tomatillos, jalapenos and onions in a pan, and cover with water. Boil until tender, then drain. Place the vegetables in a blender and add the cilantro. Blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper and a little lime juice if needed.
• For the crema: Combine the sour cream and lemon juice. Add just enough milk to make the crema pourable, then season with salt and pepper.
• For the tacos: Preheat a grill. Place the marinated fish on the hot grill, sprinkle lightly with salt and cook for about 2 minutes per side.
• Moisten the shredded cabbage with a little lime juice and salsa verde, toss to coat.
• When the fish is almost finished cooking, warm the tortillas on the grill until they are warm and pliable.
• Place the warm tortillas on a plate, place a couple pieces of fish (about 2 ounces) on the tortilla, and top with some salsa verde. Then add some shredded cabbage, more salsa verde, drizzle on some crema and top with crumbled queso fresco. Repeat for the remaining tacos.
• Serve the tacos with lime wedges, chopped cilantro and pico de gallo.

Steps:

• Toss the slaw mix, red onion, lime juice, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl; set aside.
• Preheat a grill to medium. Oil the grates. Mix the cayenne with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl; rub all over the fish. Grill until well marked on the bottom and the fish releases easily from the grill, about 6 minutes. Flip and grill until cooked through, 4 to 6 more minutes. 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.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium heat.
• Mix 1 Tbsp. lime juice, dressing and cumin. Grill fish 4 min. on each side or until fish flakes easily with fork, brushing occasionally with dressing mixture. Meanwhile, grill tortillas 1 min. or just until warmed, turning after 30 sec.; wrap in foil or towel to keep warm.
• Combine remaining lime juice, mayo and cilantro in medium bowl. Add coleslaw blend; toss to coat. Use fork to break fish into bite-size pieces.
• Top tortillas with coleslaw, fish and cheese; roll up.

Steps:

• Cut the fish filets in equal size pieces (so they cook evenly). Lay the fish into an 8 x 8 baking dish, and squeeze half a lime over the fish. Add garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, and one tablespoon oil. Season with salt and pepper and turn the fish to evenly coat each piece. Cover and refrigerate to marinade for at least 15 minutes.
• Combine the coleslaw and the cilantro in a medium size bowl. Squeeze a lime half over the coleslaw and add remaining one tablespoon of oil. Toss, add salt and pepper to taste, and set aside.
• Warm the tortillas by heating a medium size pan or grill pan over medium high heat. Heat tortillas one at a time, flipping to warm both sides. Continue with remaining tortillas. Wrap warm tortillas in a clean cloth or use a tortilla warmer. Set aside while you cook the fish.
• Brush the grates of an indoor 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 pan or grill.
• Cook without moving until 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 2-3 minutes more. Transfer fish to a serving platter.
• To serve cut the fish into pieces, place into a warm corn tortilla. Serve with pico de gallo, seasoned coleslaw, and additional lime juice.
• This dish was created by Walmart Mom, Tina Butler.

Steps:

• Stir 1 cup onion, 1/4 cup cilantro, oil, 3 tablespoons lime juice, orange juice, garlic, and oregano in medium bowl. Sprinkle fish with coarse salt and pepper. Spread half of onion mixture over bottom of 11x7x2-inch glass baking dish. Arrange fish atop onion mixture. Spoon remaining onion mixture over fish. Cover and chill 30 minutes. Turn fish; cover and chill 30 minutes longer. Whisk mayonnaise, milk, and remaining 2 tablespoons lime juice in small bowl.
• Brush grill grate with oil; prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill fish with some marinade still clinging until just opaque in center, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Grill tortillas until slightly charred, about 10 seconds per side.
• Coarsely chop fish; place on platter. Serve with lime mayonnaise, tortillas, remaining 1 cup chopped onion, remaining 1/2 cup cilantro, avocados, cabbage, Salsa Verde, and lime wedges.

Steps:

• Very thinly slice onion crosswise into rings with slicer. Set slicer aside. Heat vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small heavy nonreactive saucepan until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in onion, then let stand until ready to use (about 25 minutes).
• Meanwhile, stir 1/4 cup lime juice together with cilantro, oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add fish and toss to coat, then marinate at room temperature 15 minutes.
• Whisk together mayonnaise, crema, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining 3 tablespoons lime juice to make sauce.
• Preheat a gas grill with burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to medium-high.
• Thread each piece of fish onto a skewer (discard marinade). Wrap exposed part of each skewer in heavy-duty foil to protect it from charring.
• Wrap tortillas in 2 foil packages and warm on grill, turning once, about 3 minutes total.
• Oil grill rack, then grill fish, covered, turning once, until opaque and just cooked through (for mahimahi), about 6 minutes total; or until just pink in center (for tuna), about 4 minutes.
• Very thinly slice radishes with slicer. Halve, pit, and peel avocados, then cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Drain onions.
• Serve fish with tortillas, crema sauce, onions, and remaining toppings.
