Fish Tacos


Slaw:
1/4 cup sliced green onions with tops
2 T. chopped fresh cilantro
1 T. lime juice
1 garlic clove, pressed
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp Cajun or blackened fish seasoning
2 cups broccoli slaw mix

Or use this slaw recipe (I tried this today and liked it even better)
1/3 cup green onion, chopped
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
4 cups broccoli slaw mix
1 cup diced tomatoes
2 T. olive oil
2 T. lime juice, fresh
1/2 tsp. salt


Fish:
1 lb tilapia fish fillets
1 T. Cajun or blackened fish seasoning

avocado or guacamole
corn tortillas

1. For slaw, mix all the first seven ingredients together then add broccoli slaw. Toss to coat. Cover; refrigerate until ready to serve.

2. Heat pan over medium heat. Sprinkle fish with seasoning - place in pan and cook over medium heat 10-12 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork, carefully turning once. Remove from heat, flake fish into bite-size pieces.

3. Warm tortillas - top with slaw mixture and fish. Top with avocado slices or guacamole - may also top with sliced radishes.

When I make this for my family, I always double the recipe and then we have leftovers. For those of you who don't like fish, tilapia is a very mild fish- not a "fishy" flavor.

Too bad Chad isn't very adventure some....tell him just to try it. Jeff has started liking lots of things since we got married. Like drinking milk, yogurt, salmon, etc.
