Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 tablespoons fresh lime juice, divided
3 tablespoons tequila
3 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh cilantro, divided
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 lb mahimahi
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon canola oil
2 3/4 teaspoons honey, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
3 cups thinly sliced red cabbage
3/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
3 tablespoons 2 percent milk
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lime zest
8 corn tortillas (6 inches each)
1/2 firm-ripe avocado, thinly sliced
2 limes, quartered

Steps:

  • In a resealable plastic bag, combine 3 tablespoons lime juice, tequila, 1 tablespoons cilantro, garlic and cumin. Add fish, seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate, turning once, 1 hour. In a bowl, combine vinegar, oil, 2 teaspoons honey, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add cabbage; toss well. In another bowl, combine sour cream, milk, zest, remaining 1 tbsp juice, remaining 3/4 teaspoon honey and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat grill. Remove fish from marinade; season with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill, turning once, until just cooked through and lightly charred, 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board; coarsely chop. Stir remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro into slaw. Grill tortillas, turning once, 30 seconds per side. To assemble, spoon 1 tablespoon sour cream mixture in center of each tortilla. Divide fish, slaw and avocado among tortillas. Garnish with lime wedges.

I'm not a big fan of fish, but I really enjoyed these tacos. The fish was cooked perfectly and the flavors were amazing.

These tacos are a great way to use up leftover fish. I had some grilled salmon that I flaked and used in the tacos. They were delicious!

I used a store-bought tequila-lime marinade for this recipe and it worked great. I'm sure it would be even better if I made my own marinade, but I was short on time.

I made these tacos with grilled shrimp instead of fish and they were fantastic. The shrimp cooked quickly and they were very flavorful.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The tacos were still delicious, but I think they would have been even better with the cilantro.

I added some chopped mango to my tacos and they were even better. The sweetness of the mango really complemented the fish.

These tacos were easy to make and they turned out great. I used tilapia instead of mahi-mahi and it worked just as well.

I'm not a huge fan of fish tacos, but these were really good. The fish was moist and flaky and the flavors were well-balanced.
