RECIPE: Fish Tacos
This is our dietician, Mel’s, all time favourite fish taco recipe. It’s packed with fresh ingredients and the fish is seasoned to perfection. Make sure you don’t skip the fruity salsa…it’s guaranteed to take your taste buds to the next level.
INGREDIENTS:
4 x white fish fillets
8 mini corn tortillas
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp mild paprika
300g packet slaw mix
2 tbsp coriander
2 tbsp low fat French dressing
low fat feta (optional)
Salsa:
1 small avocado, chopped
1 punnet strawberries, halved OR 1 mango, diced
1 tbsp lime juice
METHOD:
Preheat oven to 200°C.
Lightly oil a fry pan and heat to medium-high. Warm tortillas on pan for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned. Transfer tortillas to a plate, cover with foil to keep warm and set aside.
Sprinkle fish fillets evenly with paprika, then spray with olive oil. Cook fish on the fry pan, for 3-4 minutes or until just cooked through. Transfer fish to a plate and leave to rest for 2 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine coleslaw mix, coriander and French dressing in a large salad bowl. Place avocado and lime juice in a second small bowl, mash roughly with a fork until almost smooth. Mix through diced mango or strawberries.
To serve, place slaw mix on reserved warm tortilla, top with fish fillet then add mango salsa. Add optional crumbed feta.
Serve soft tacos with additional salad if you like.
