Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Pat the fish fillets dry and season both sides generously with blackening seasoning.

  2. 2

    Grill the Fish

    Place the seasoned fish on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and has a nice char. Remove from heat and let rest for a couple of minutes.

  3. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

    While the fish rests, warm the flour tortillas on the grill or in a skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Flake the grilled fish into bite-sized pieces and place them in the center of each tortilla. Top with red cabbage, pico de gallo, a drizzle of chipotle mayo, and a dollop of Mexican crema.

  5. 5

    Serve

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