20 minutes start to finish!
There are just so many variationsI have to try them all, right?!
I’ve had tacos with halibut, snapper, and even salmon.

I’ve enjoyed tacos withdeep-fried fishand tacos with grilled fish.
I’ve sampled tacos with tongue-tingling tingling mayo and tacos withtangy fruit salsa.
They’reready in about 20 minutesand they hit the spot every time.

Make your life easier and pick up filets that have already been skinned.
If you end up with fillets with the skins still on, it’s no problem.
Cook them as directed in the recipe skin-side on top first, then flip so they’re skin-side down.

They may need an extra minute or two to cook through.
The fish is done when it flakes easily away from the skin.
It adds a touch of spice to the fish and makes a nice contrast to the cooling cabbage slaw.

If you’re not a fan of chili powder, use plain paprika or any favorite spice mix.
Even just salt and pepper are just fine!
What’s in the Taco Sauce?

Again, I keep it simply here.
Corn or Flour Tortillas?
I’ve had fish tacos with all manner of tortillas, even cauliflower!

This is to say, your choice of tortilla is your own.

He says that way he gets more sauce in each bite.

Give it a try and see what you think!
In a medium bowl, combine the shredded cabbage with 3 tablespoons of the taco sauce.
Stir to coat and add more taco sauce if you like.
Simply Recipes / Sally Vargas
(The cabbage shouldn’t be dripping with sauce; aim for a very thin coating.)
Keep warmed tortillas wrapped in a clean dish towel while you make the fish.
Sprinkle the fish on both sides with chili powder and salt.
Simply Recipes / Sally Vargas
Gently rub in the seasonings with your fingers to see to it the fish is entirely coated.
Warm a large cast iron or nonstick skillet on the stovetop over medium-high heat.
When hot, add one tablespoon of olive oil and tilt the pan to entirely coat the bottom.
Add the fish to the pan and cook for 2 minutes.
Flip the fish and cook another 2 minutes.
