Guest Chef – Marcy’s Fish Tacos

I’m so honored to be Kari’s guest today. I’m going to share with you my recipe for Fish Tacos, they are CRAZY good!  If you have never had Fish Tacos, you may be thinking that they sound strange; but trust me, they are worth trying.  I have had a ton of requests for this recipe and everyone who tries them, loves them.
The fish for these tacos is super easy, I buy the Trident ultimate fish sticks from COSTCO.  I know it’s cheating but for a weeknight meal you can’t beat them.  If you can’t find the Trident ultimate fish sticks then look for a high quality whole fillet fish stick…no minced fish!  You could also use unbreaded fish or make your own.

Bake the fish according to the directions on the back of the package. I usually use 1-2 pieces per taco.
This sauce makes the taco!

Cilantro Sauce

• 1 bunch of cilantro- washed and dried
• 1/4 cup of REAL mayo
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 1 clove of garlic peeled
• juice of 1 lime
• salt and pepper to taste

Throw all of the ingredients into a food processor or blender and blend away. If you would like a thinner sauce you can add 1-3 tablespoons of milk.
If you really want to impress someone, make this salsa to go on top.

• Tomato Avocado Salsa
• 2 cups plum tomatoes diced ( about 2 med)
• 1/3 cup diced onion
• 1 avocado diced
• 1 jalapeno minced-optional
• 2 tablespoons minced cilantro
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl; toss well.

You will also need shredded cabbage and warm corn or flour tortillas to make your tacos.

To assemble tacos: Place fish into warm tortilla , top with cabbage, cilantro sauce, tomato avocado salsa and/or hot sauce.

*Quick Tip- Make your cilantro sauce and salsa early in the day and refrigerate. When you need to make dinner, all you have to do it put the fish in the oven and warm your tortillas. EASY!  As a busy mom, I’m all about quick, easy, healthful meals that I can get on the table in a hurry.  These fish tacos are perfect when you don’t have a lot of time…if you plan ahead.

I hope you all enjoy these tacos as much as we do!
