Stir-Up Supper with Jenn Hobby - a daily dinner idea!

 

 

Grilled Fish Tacos

Recipe adapted from Live Better America & Whole Living with Real-Life Notes from Jenn Hobby

 

Ingredients:

1 lb firm white fish fillets, such as sea bass, red snapper or halibut (Note 1)

1  tablespoon olive or vegetable oil

1  teaspoon ground cumin or chili powder (Note 2)

1/2  teaspoon salt

1/4  teaspoon pepper

8  corn tortillas (6 inch)

1/4  cup reduced-fat sour cream (Note 3) 

Toppers (shredded lettuce or shredded green cabbage, chopped avocado, thinly sliced radishes, chopped tomatoes, chopped onion, sliced scallions and chopped fresh cilantro)

1/2  cup chunky-style salsa

1 lime, cut into wedges

 

Directions:

Heat gas or charcoal grill. Brush fish with oil; sprinkle with cumin/ chili powder, salt and pepper.

 

Carefully spray grill rack with cooking spray. Place fish on grill. Cover grill; cook over medium heat 5 to 7 minutes, turning once, until fish flakes easily with fork. (Note 4)

 

Heat tortillas as directed on package. Or toast corn tortillas over a kitchen burner using tongs. Or wrap in parchment-lined foil and heat in oven, 5 minutes.

 

Spread sour cream on tortillas. 

 

Add fish, your favorite toppers and salsa. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with slice of lime. 

(Note 5)

 

Notes:

1. Any type of firm white fish will be great, just be sure the skin is removed and it is boneless. 

 

2. I like the flavor of using both cumin and chili powder. 1/2 teaspoon each.

 

3. If you like the taste of reduced-fat sour cream, go for it and save a few calories. But I hate it. I only like the real thing. Real Sour cream for me, please! I just eat a smaller portion on my tortilla. 

 

4. You can also cook the fish on an indoor grill pan over medium-high heat and get the same flaky grilled fish. The fish smell may linger a little longer in your home, but if you don't have an outdoor grill, you can still make this delicious dish! 

 

5. This is a gluten free recipe, as long as you use corn tortillas, not flour! 

 

Enjoy! With love, Jenn
