CALIFORNIA FISH TACOS WW



California Fish Tacos Ww image

From WW's Hit the Spot. The original recipe called for red snapper, but catfish works well, too. You can use any firm white fish, so mahi mahi, grouper, tilapia, haddock, or cod will also work to suit your personal preference. (Sole or flounder would be too thin.) 4 WW "thingies" on old plan, but add 2 "thingies" if add 1/4 avocado to each serving. Update 5/4/13: Made these for myself, and I was disappointed: the fish didn't stay hot after flaking, the cabbage-onion mixture overwhelmed the fish, and cold tacos are a waste of calorie expenditure. DH would have preferred lettuce to cabbage, although lettuce has no nutritional value.On the plus side, the lime juice kept the avocado from spoiling.

FISH TACOS WITH CHIPOTLE CREAM



Fish tacos with chipotle cream image

Our recipe calls for broiling the fish so that the dish comes together quickly and easily all year round and mimics the grilled fish tacos enjoyed at beachside shacks. This version of the favorite features earthy, spicy chipotle en adobo, a canned, smoked and sauced version of ripened jalapeños available in the Mexican section of most grocery stores. Transfer what you don't use of the chipotles and their sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate it. It will keep for several weeks, or up to a year if frozen. We blend the spicy chili sauce with sour cream to tame its heat and make a dressing for the fresh cabbage slaw that tops the tacos. Paired with some avocado, either sliced or whipped into guacamole, you've got a taco that will transport you to the beach in every bite!
