Provided by Guy Fieri

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1/2 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 cups shredded red cabbage
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
3 tablespoons tequila
3 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons minced garlic
Juice of 1 lime
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Four 6- to 8-ounce boneless, skinless mahi mahi fillets (or other firm white fish)
Oil, for cooking
Sixteen 6- to 7-inch soft flour tortillas
1 cup Cilantro Lime Crema, recipe follows
2 cups crumbled Cotija cheese
Hot sauce, for garnish, if desired
2 limes, cut into wedges
8 ounces sour cream
1/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 limes, juiced
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • For the cabbage: In a large mixing bowl, combine the vinegar, sugar and salt and mix together well. Add the cabbage and stir to coat everything evenly. Allow to marinate for 15 minutes. Fold in the cilantro and set aside until ready to use.
  • For the fish marinade: In a large mixing bowl, combine the tequila, cumin, garlic, lime juice and some salt and pepper. Portion the fish into 1-inch cubes and add to the marinade. Set aside to marinate for 4 to 5 minutes.
  • To cook the fish: Heat a flat top grill to high and coat with a little oil. Skewer 4 to 5 pieces of fish on each skewer. Place the skewers on the grill and cook until the fish is white and cooked through, about 1 minute on each side and about 4 minutes total. Remove the skewers and allow to rest.
  • Warm the tortillas in batches on the grill for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove the tortillas to a towel-lined foil pouch and cover loosely to keep warm.
  • To build the tacos, drizzle a little Cilantro Lime Crema on a tortilla. Top with some strained red cabbage mixture and then place a skewer of fish on top. Slide out the skewer so the fish stays on the taco, and then finish with more lime crema. Garnish with some crumbled Cotija and hot sauce and serve with a wedge of lime on the side. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, milk, cilantro, garlic, cumin and lime juice and chill for 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper.

SLOSHED SHRIMP

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 pounds (21 to 25 count) shrimp, peeled and deveined, reserving shells
1 small white onion, finely diced, divided
1 carrot, peeled and grated
1 small celery stalk, finely diced
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1 quart water
1 small bay leaf
1 teaspoon lightly crushed black peppercorns
4 tablespoons butter, plus 1 stick cold butter cut into tablespoon size pieces
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 lemon, juiced
1 bottle beer (recommended: Abita)
Hot sauce, to taste
1/4 cup sliced green onion

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, add olive oil. Add the shrimp shells and toast until opaque and a little crunchy, about 10 minutes, tossing frequently. Add half the onion, the carrot and celery and cook, stirring, until softened. Stir in tomato paste and cook, stirring, about 2 minutes. Add the water, bay leaf, and peppercorns, bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, about 30 minutes. Strain; you should have about 2 cups stock; if more, return stock to clean saucepan and reduce over medium heat.
  • In a skillet, melt on medium heat the 4 tablespoons of butter, add the remaining onion, and cook until softened and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic, cumin, thyme, basil, red pepper, and paprika and cook another 2 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice. Carefully arrange shrimp in a pan large enough to hold them without overlapping.
  • Pour seasoned butter over shrimp and mix well with shrimp. Bake until just cooked through, about 10 minutes. (Do not overcook or you will have rubbery shrimp.)
  • Remove shrimp from pan and place pan back on stovetop over medium-high heat to make the sauce. Add beer and 1 cup shrimp stock to the seasoned butter, cook until reduced to 1/3 volume.
  • Whisk in cold stick butter, 2-3 pats at a time, until sauce holds together. Remove from heat and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper and hot sauce. Arrange shrimp on a platter and drizzle with sauce. Garnish with sliced green onion.
