Description

Today I’m at my family's beach house and we gon fishin’. I fire up some small, but tasty fish tacos with the fam! Nothing better than pulling a fresh fish out of the water and eating it within the hour! I highly recommend it!

Ingredients

Fresh whole fish, cleaned, scaled, gutted, and filleted
Desired seasoning (Snakebite, Poultry Rub)

For the Mango Salsa

Fresh mango, diced
Red onion, finely diced
Fresh cilantro, chopped
Fresh lime juice
Serrano peppers, finely chopped (optional, for heat)

Fish Taco Sauce

1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup sour cream
Chipotles in adobo sauce, chopped
Fresh lime juice
Salt and pepper, to taste

For Serving

Corn tortillas
Cabbage, thinly sliced
Guacamole

Fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

-Begin by cleaning your fish. Scale, gut, and debone, then remove the filets. Rinse the filets and let them rest in the refrigerator while preparing the toppings.

-Season the fish filets with your desired seasoning.

-Prepare the mango salsa by combining diced mango, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and serrano peppers if desired. Mix well and set aside.

-For the taco sauce, stir together mayonnaise, sour cream, chopped chipotles in adobo, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Adjust to taste.

-Slice the cabbage and prepare guacamole if using.

-Fire up the pit. Place the fish filets skin side down. If the filets are small, use a pan to prevent sticking. Cook quickly until the skin is crisp and the fish is tender.

-Warm the corn tortillas.

-Assemble the tacos with a tortilla base, followed by grilled fish filet, mango salsa, sliced cabbage, taco sauce, guacamole, grilled corn if using, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

-Enjoy
