Ingredients

Servings

Mango Salsa

  • 2 cups ripe mango small diced
  • 3 roma tomatoes deseeded and small diced
  • 1 Jalapeno pepper deseeded and small diced
  • 1 small red onion small diced
  • ½ cup cilantro finely chopped
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • ½ tsp chili powder
  • ¼-½ tsp kosher salt to taste

Spice Blend

  • 2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ¼ tsp ground cumin

Fish Tacos

  • 3 lean white fish filets like cod, mahi-mahi, snapper, or halibut
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • corn tortillas for serving

Instructions

  1. Mango Salsa
  2. Mix together all the ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl. Set aside. This can be made a day ahead.
  3. Make the Fish Tacos
  4. Mix together the spices in a small bowl, set aside.
  5. Cover the white fish in vegetable oil with a pastry brush, then generously season the filets with the spice blend on all sides.
  6. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (you can also do this on a grill pan on the stove top).
  7. Use a heat-safe silicone brush to cover the clean grill grates with a high heat oil (more vegetable oil works here) and carefully place the fish onto the grill. Cook on each side for 4 minutes, flipping once. Set aside
  8. Warm the tortillas on the grill or a plancha on the grill for 45 seconds on each side, remove to a tortilla warmer or plate and cover the tortillas with a damp paper towel.
  9. Let the fish rest for a couple of minutes before gently using a fork to break them apart into big chunks. Pour lime juice over the fish.
  10. Serve on the grilled tortillas with mango salsa and other toppings.

Notes

  • The mango salsa can be made a day ahead of time, which makes the day-of prep for this recipe nonexistent!
  • Fish tacos are best to eat right off the grill, but if you have leftovers keep them in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat the fish in the oven at 325ºF for 7-10 minutes or in the air fryer on 390ºF for 3 minutes.
