Ingredients

½ a red onion, thinly sliced, with the grain.
1- 1 ½ teaspoon kosher salt, start with 1, add more to taste
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¾ cup fresh lime juice (4-6 limes) freshly squeezed ( try to use ripe limes)
1-2 garlic cloves very finely minced (use a garlic press)
1 fresh serrano or jalapeño chili pepper seeded and very finely chopped. Start conservatively, more to taste.
1 pound fresh fish- sea bass, red snapper, corvina, halibut, dorado, escolar, mahi-mahi, tilapia, or hamachi - diced into 1/2 inch cubes.
¼-½ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, sliced or cut in half (or 1 cup diced tomatoes)
1 cup diced cucumber
1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
optional: 1 semi-firm Avocado, diced, or make the Avocado Sauce
⅔ cup Avocado
⅓ cup cilantro
2/3 cup water- plus more as needed
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon coriander
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 garlic clove
cracked pepper to taste

Steps:

Slice the red onion thinly with the grain, and toss in a bowl with 1 teaspoon salt and the lime juice, coating well.
Add the fish, garlic and fresh chilies, and gently mix.
Add the tomatoes, cucumber, cilantro and olive oil, and give a stir and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving (45-60 minutes is ideal). The longer you marinate the firmer and more "cooked" the fish will become.
Before serving, taste and adjust the salt and heat. Add more salt or chilies if you like. If adding avocado, gently fold it in right before serving- you may need to add a pinch more salt.
To make the optional Avocado Sauce, blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth, adding a bit more water or oil, if needed to get the blades going.

Time 30m

Yield 8 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

1 1/4 pounds tilapia fillets, about 5
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Kosher salt
1 to 1 1/2 cups water
3 cups canola oil
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 teaspoon garlic, chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves, divided
Freshly ground black pepper
8 corn tortillas
1/2 head green cabbage, shredded (reserve remaining half for Round 2 Recipe, Bean and Cheese Chalupas)

Steps:

Cut the fish into 1 1/2-inch chunks. (Reserve 1 fillet and refrigerate for the online Round 2 Recipe, Ceviche.)
To make the batter, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk in enough water, about 1 to 1 1/2 cups, until the mixture is the consistency of pancake batter.
Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium heat to 360 degrees F.
When the oil is hot, working in batches, dip the fish pieces into the batter and carefully add them to the hot oil. Cook the fish until golden brown on both sides and the fish is cooked through, about 4 to 6 minutes total. Remove from the pan and drain on to a sheet tray lined with a paper bag or paper towels.
To make the sauce, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, hot sauce, lime juice, garlic, and 2 tablespoons cilantro in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Wrap the tortillas in a damp towel and microwave on medium for 1 minute to warm. Put about 1/4 cup of the shredded cabbage on each tortilla. Put 3 pieces of the fried fish on top of the cabbage, then top with some sauce. Arrange the tacos on a serving platter and garnish with a sprinkle of cilantro. Serve immediately.
