FISH TACOS
Steps:
- Make the filling:
- In a bowl toss together the scrod, the olives, the tomatoes, the scallions, the chilies, the lime juice, the vinegar, the oil, the coriander, and salt and black pepper to taste and chill the filling, covered, for at least 1 hour or overnight.
- In a skillet heat 1/2 inch of the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking, in it fry the tortillas, 1 at a time, folding them almost in half with tongs to form taco shells, for 1 minute, or until they are crisp and golden, and transfer them as they are fried with the tongs to paper towels to drain. Divide the filling among the tacos and top it with the lettuce and the radishes.
Tips:
- Choose the right fish: For fish tacos, it's best to use a firm-fleshed fish that will hold up well in the tacos. Some good options include tilapia, cod, halibut, and salmon.
- Make sure the fish is cooked properly: The fish should be cooked through but still flaky. Overcooked fish will be dry and tough.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your fish tacos the best flavor. If you can, try to use fresh fish, vegetables, and herbs.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make fish tacos. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors to find the combination that you like best.
