EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Fish tacos typically are made with corn tortillas instead of flour, but you can also use small flour tortillas. Top these flavorful fish tacos with any of your favorite condiments: shredded lettuce or cabbage, chopped tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, avocados or fresh cilantro. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lime juice.

Fish tacos originated more than 25 years ago in San Felipe, a Mexican town on the Gulf of California. Because fresh fish was so plentiful, they wrapped it inside tortillas.

We purchased one pound of Canadian fresh caught Pacific Snapper for the fish. We used an oiled (olive oil, not cooking spray) fish cooking pan with the holes in it and when the fish was flaky yet still moist, we took it off. After following directions, I needed a little more spice than directed. I thought the fish would be done, as it met the recipe cook test, but fish seemed too drippy/juicy. It seemed that the flavors of the cumin/pepper could have ran out with the juices. Also, we seem to be having problems keeping the fish warm when adding cool sour cream and guacamole toppers. Still, the tacos were way fresher and better than restaurant tacos. The add-ons we used were: sour cream, homemade guacamole with serrano chiles, fresh lemon, salt, fresh cracked pepper, garlic powder, minced tomatoes, onion, Cholula (Chili Garlic), and fresh limes. Side dishes were homemade fideo soup and seedless watermelon.
