Ingredients
Scale
- 6 corn or flour tortillas
- 1 1/2 pounds white fish fillets (tilapia, mahi mahi, haddock, or cod work well)
- 1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning (or other seafood seasoning)
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons oil
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Toppings
- Avocado slices
- Finely shredded red or green cabbage
- Salsa verde, or Mango and Tomato Fresh Salsa
- Sour Cream
- Pickled jalapenos, or Mexican-Spiced Jalapenos
- Crumbled feta cheese, or other favorite cheese
- Red onion, thinly-sliced
Instructions
- Season fish with seafood seasoning and smoked paprika. Set aside.
- Prepare tortillas by toasting on both sides in a hot skillet, until they start to soften and get a little color. (About a 30-60 seconds per side.) Wrap them loosely in foil and set aside until the fish is ready.
- Add oil to the same skillet heated over medium-high heat.
- When the oil is hot, cook the fish until just done, about 2 minutes per side. Cook until it flakes easily with a fork, but don’t overcook.
- Remove the fish to a plate, and break it into large pieces with a fork. Squeeze lime juice over fish. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Assemble tacos by dividing the flaked fish between the tortillas, and adding toppings of choice. Serve immediately.
