GRILLED FISH TACOS WITH CHIPOTLE-LIME DRESSING
I came up with this recipe when I couldn't find good directions for grilled fish tacos. I liked the chipotle-lime combination in a dip I once tried so I imitated it here. Choose toppings to suit your taste, or include typical accompaniments such as salsa fresca, cabbage, a squeeze of lime juice, and chopped cilantro.

Steps:
- Toss the slaw mix, red onion, lime juice, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl; set aside.
- Preheat a grill to medium. Oil the grates. Mix the cayenne with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl; rub all over the fish. Grill until well marked on the bottom and the fish releases easily from the grill, about 6 minutes. Flip and grill until cooked through, 4 to 6 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and slice or flake the fish.
- Meanwhile, wrap the tortillas in foil and warm on the grill, about 4 minutes.
- Divide the fish among the warm tortillas. Top with the slaw, cilantro, crema and salsa verde. Serve with lime wedges.
GRILLED TEQUILA LIME FISH TACOS
Steps:
- For the cabbage: In a large mixing bowl, combine the vinegar, sugar and salt and mix together well. Add the cabbage and stir to coat everything evenly. Allow to marinate for 15 minutes. Fold in the cilantro and set aside until ready to use.
- For the fish marinade: In a large mixing bowl, combine the tequila, cumin, garlic, lime juice and some salt and pepper. Portion the fish into 1-inch cubes and add to the marinade. Set aside to marinate for 4 to 5 minutes.
- To cook the fish: Heat a flat top grill to high and coat with a little oil. Skewer 4 to 5 pieces of fish on each skewer. Place the skewers on the grill and cook until the fish is white and cooked through, about 1 minute on each side and about 4 minutes total. Remove the skewers and allow to rest.
- Warm the tortillas in batches on the grill for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove the tortillas to a towel-lined foil pouch and cover loosely to keep warm.
- To build the tacos, drizzle a little Cilantro Lime Crema on a tortilla. Top with some strained red cabbage mixture and then place a skewer of fish on top. Slide out the skewer so the fish stays on the taco, and then finish with more lime crema. Garnish with some crumbled Cotija and hot sauce and serve with a wedge of lime on the side. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, milk, cilantro, garlic, cumin and lime juice and chill for 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper.

GRILLED FISH TACOS WITH KEY LIME SAUCE
These fish tacos with a crunchy slaw and creamy, tangy sauce really hit the spot. Key limes are smaller, tarter and more aromatic than Persian limes and worth seeking out, but you can definitely use regular limes instead.

Steps:
- For the slaw: Combine the cabbage, lime juice, scallions, jalapeno and cilantro in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Let sit for 10 minutes, toss again and season again to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside for up to 2 hours at room temperature, or refrigerate for up to 2 days. (The longer it sits the better it gets.)
- Preheat the grill over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F or heat a grill pan over medium heat. Clean and oil the grill grates.
- Meanwhile, for the key lime sauce: Whisk the lime juice, mayonnaise and mustard together in a small bowl. Set aside.
- For the fish and assembly: Place the fish on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle both sides with oil then liberally sprinkle with cumin, salt and pepper until both sides are coated. Grill the fish until you see grill marks and the flesh is white and easily flakes with a fork, 2 to 3 minutes per side depending on the thickness. (It's okay if the fish breaks since it will be broken up into large chunks for the tacos.) Transfer to a plate.
- Grill the tortillas until lightly charred, about 1 minute per side.
- Fill each tortilla with about 1/4 cup of the slaw, followed by some of the fish broken into large chunks. Drizzle with sauce, top with a scattering of the tomatoes and a sprinkling of cilantro leaves and serve immediately.
