Instructions

  1. Mix together the fruit salsa ingredients. Set aside.
  2. Mix together chili powder, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle on both sides of the fish fillets.
  3. Heat 2 tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add half of the fish. Fry the fish for 2-3 minutes per side, until opaque and cooked through. Remove from the pan and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining fish.
  4. Use a fork to break the fish up into small pieces and divide it among 8 tortillas. Divide the broccoli slaw, fruit salsa, and plain Greek yogurt evenly among the 8 tacos. Serve with lime wedges.

Notes

  • To store leftover Baja Fish Tacos, keep the fish, salsa, and toppings separate in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The fish will stay good in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheating is easy—simply warm the fish in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave until heated through.
  • It's best not to freeze this recipe, as the texture of the fish and salsa can be affected. Assemble the tacos just before serving for the best taste and texture.
