Fish Tacos...

When I lived in San Diego, there was a little thing called Taco Tuesday. In Seattle, not so much. But Taco Tuesday was amazing: two dollars or less for a taco of your choice plus deals on margaritas and Mexican beer.

These tacos may not be two dollars or less, but they are delicious-

Fish Tacos (for two)

Ingredients:
  • 3/4 pound white fish (such as cod)
  • 4 tortillas
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese
  • 1/4 head of cabbage, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 cup Pico de Gallo (or you can make your own- see below)
  • juice of 1 lime
  • salt and pepper to taste
Season fish with salt, pepper and juice of one lime. In a greased pan cook the fish on medium heat for about 8 to 10 minutes, turning half way through. The fish should be flaky. Remove from heat. In a small bowl combine cabbage with Pico de Gallo and sour cream until mixed. Divide fish among the tortillas and put a large scoop of the cabbage mix on top. Add a sprinkle of shredded cheese and enjoy! You can also add avocados or guacamole.

Pico de Gallo Recipe (from Food Network's Emeril Lagasse)
Combine all ingredients in a bowl:
  • 1 1/2 cups seeded, diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 1 tablespoon diced jalapenos
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro, plus extra for garnish
  • Salt and pepper
I know it's not Tuesday, but tacos are a good meal any day of the week!
