Cook Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 40 mins
Cuisine: Mexican
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 flour tortillas
- 1 lb grilled fish (such as tilapia)
- 1/2 cup mango salsa
- 1/2 cup avocado relish
- 1/2 cup cabbage slaw
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by preparing all your ingredients. Gather 4 flour tortillas, 1 lb of grilled fish (such as tilapia), 1/2 cup of mango salsa, 1/2 cup of avocado relish, 1/2 cup of cabbage slaw, 1 lime cut into wedges, and salt and pepper.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. If the fish is not already grilled, season it with salt and pepper, then grill it for about 3-4 minutes on each side until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. If the fish is pre-cooked, simply warm it in the skillet for a few minutes.
- While the fish is cooking, prepare the tortillas. You can warm them in a separate skillet or directly over a low flame on the stovetop for about 30 seconds on each side, until they are soft and pliable.
- Once the fish is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. Then, using a fork, flake the fish into bite-sized pieces.
- To assemble the tacos, take a warm tortilla and place a generous portion of the flaked fish in the center. Top with a spoonful of mango salsa, followed by a dollop of avocado relish, and a handful of cabbage slaw.
- Repeat the assembly process for the remaining tortillas and fish. Ensure each taco is filled to your liking with the relishes and slaw.
- Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the tacos just before eating for added flavor.
- Enjoy your delicious fish tacos with three relishes, perfect for a casual meal or a festive gathering!
Tips
- Choose the Right Fish: While tilapia works great, you can also use cod, halibut, or mahi-mahi for variety.
- Grill Mastery: Ensure your fish is cooked perfectly by checking for an internal temperature of 145°F and a flaky texture.
- Tortilla Technique: Warm tortillas briefly to enhance their flexibility and bring out their subtle flavor.
- Relish Preparation: Make your relishes ahead of time to allow flavors to meld and save time during cooking.
- Fresh is Best: Use fresh lime juice and squeeze it just before serving to maintain maximum brightness.
- Customize Your Tacos: Don't be afraid to add extra toppings like cilantro, hot sauce, or additional fresh herbs.
- Serve Immediately: These tacos are best enjoyed fresh and hot, so time your preparation carefully.
