Fish Marinade

Taco Assembly

Method

Fish Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Fish

    Add the white fish fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Grilling the Fish

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Grill the Fish

    Remove the fish from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  3. 5

    Remove and Rest

    Once cooked, remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before flaking it into bite-sized pieces.

Taco Assembly

  1. 6

    Warm the Tortillas

    While the fish is resting, warm the soft corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Tacos

    On each tortilla, add a generous amount of the grilled fish, followed by a spoonful of fresh salsa, sliced avocado, and chopped cilantro if using.

  3. 8

    Serve

    Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for drizzling over the top.
