Tequila Tacos Recipes

Steps:

• In a resealable plastic bag, combine 3 tablespoons lime juice, tequila, 1 tablespoons cilantro, garlic and cumin. Add fish, seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate, turning once, 1 hour. In a bowl, combine vinegar, oil, 2 teaspoons honey, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add cabbage; toss well. In another bowl, combine sour cream, milk, zest, remaining 1 tbsp juice, remaining 3/4 teaspoon honey and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat grill. Remove fish from marinade; season with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill, turning once, until just cooked through and lightly charred, 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board; coarsely chop. Stir remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro into slaw. Grill tortillas, turning once, 30 seconds per side. To assemble, spoon 1 tablespoon sour cream mixture in center of each tortilla. Divide fish, slaw and avocado among tortillas. Garnish with lime wedges.

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.

Steps:

• In a nonreactive bowl, combine 1/3 cup of the tequila, the soy sauce, the zest and juice of 1 lime, the cumin, and freshly cracked black pepper. Add the steak to the marinade and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerate it for no longer than 1 hour.
• In a small bowl combine the remaining lime zest, lime juice and sour cream. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Strain the steak from the marinade. Pour the marinade into small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Let it simmer until it reduces by a third, about 10 to 15 minutes.
• Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the steak and cook until it barely starts to brown. Switch off the heat, then add the marinade reduction, the white vinegar, and the remaining tequila.
• Prepare the taco shells, either by frying or heating in an oven.
• For service, rub the shells with the reserved lime rinds. Add the some of the beef, taco slaw, sour cream and onions to each taco. Garnish with the cilantro and Cotija cheese. Serve and enjoy!
• Prepare all the vegetables and add to a large bowl. Season them with the salt and pepper and add the vinegar. Toss to combine.

Steps:

• In the slow cooker, combine all the ingredients except the tortillas and toppings.
• Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours.
• Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and stir to blend.
• Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat and fill them with the chicken mixture. Serve with the toppings.
