The Ultimate Fish Tacos Recipe

The Ultimate Fish Tacos recipe
Taste of Home

This recipe is my favorite meal to prepare. Adding my own personal touch to the marinade makes my fish tacos pop with flavor. I warm corn tortillas on the grill and add salsa, cilantro, purple cabbage and fresh squeezed lime. —Yvonne Molina, Moreno Valley, California

Ingredients

1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
6 mahi mahi fillets (6 ounces each)
12 corn tortillas (6 inches)
2 cups chopped red cabbage
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Salsa verde, optional
2 medium limes, cut into wedges
Hot pepper sauce (Tapatio preferred)

Method

1
In a 13x9-in. baking dish, whisk the first 5 ingredients. Add fillets; turn to coat. Refrigerate, covered, 30 minutes.
2
Drain fish and discard marinade. On an oiled grill rack, grill mahi mahi, covered, over medium-high heat (or broil 4 in. from heat) until it flakes easily with a fork, 4-5 minutes per side. Remove fish. Place tortillas on grill rack; heat 30-45 seconds. Keep warm.
3
To assemble, divide fish among the tortillas; layer with red cabbage, cilantro and, if desired, salsa verde. Squeeze a little lime juice and hot pepper sauce over fish mixture; fold sides of tortilla over mixture. Serve with lime wedges and additional pepper sauce.
