These little beauties are what happen when you combine happy accident Quinoa Tortillas and Mango Salsa and a few other fresh bits and pieces for an inspired summer-y meal.

I’ve previously shared the extent we went to for fish tacos in San Diego… these are better, if I do say so myself. Added bonus – no need to drive anywhere, you can have them in your very own home.

Fish Tacos

Ingredients:

300g [2/3 lbs] white fish fillets – no bones or skin.
1/4 c cornmeal/polenta
sea salt, cracked black pepper
olive oil spray

To serve:

1 c finely sliced red cabbage
1/2 bunch coriander [cilantro] sprigs and leaves
lime wedges

1 quantity Mango Salsa
1 batch [8 pieces] Quinoa Tortillas

Yogurt Sauce: 1/4 – 1/2 c natural or greek yogurt mixed with a pinch of salt and a bit of water until thin enough to drizzle. [optional]

Method:

Rinse and pat fish dry. Cut into chunks/fingers and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toss fish pieces in cornmeal or liberally sprinkle over both sides.

Coat fish pieces with oil spray on one side. Cook spray-side down in a non-stick pan on medium-high heat until golden. Spray with oil, flip over and cook for another minute until done. Remove pan from heat and squeeze a bit of fresh lime juice over fish pieces.

To assemble tacos fill each Quinoa Tortilla with: Red cabbage and coriander sprigs, a few fish pieces and some Mango Salsa. Drizzle over Yogurt Sauce [if using]. Serve with lime wedges.

Makes 8 tacos – serves 2-3 people

      Oh Piggy – there you go again adding more restaurants to my list! Looks like Tacombi is only half a block away from our fav Cuban place – can’t believe I’ve never even seen it!

    Fish tacos are my love! I really like the sound of these quinoa tortillas too – I’ve toyed with the idea of making my own for a while now, but these ones have me sold. Fantastic!

    We made your quinoa tortillas when you first posted them and they were so good, nate and I kept eating them as soon as they came off the stove, so we stood there devouring each one, I love fish tacos, we are making these, this weekend!
