Ingredients

    Fish:

    Taco Sauce:

    • 1 cup sour cream
    • 1/4 cup mayo
    • 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
    • juice of 1/2 lime
    • 1 clove garlic

    Mango Salsa

    • 3 mangos
    • 1 bell pepper, chopped
    • 1/2 cup red onion, diced
    • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
    • 1 jalapeño, seeded and diced
    • 1 large lime, juiced
    • 1/2 tsp salt

    Tacos:

    • Iceberg lettuce
    • Purple cabbage
    • Avocado, sliced
    • Corn or flour tortillas

    Directions

      Fish:

      1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut defrosted halibut (or cod) into 1 1/2" strips and lay on parchment paper on a sheet pan. Drizzle olive oil over the pieces. Sprinkle salt, cumin, paprika, and chili powder over each piece, turning to cover all sides. Set aside to marinate while you prepare the rest. 

      2. Place sheet pan in a 400°F oven for 10-12 minutes, until fish is starting to flake but still translucent in center. 

      Mango Salsa:

      1. Peel and slice three mangos. Chop into 1/2" cubes.

      2. In a serving bowl, combine mango with bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt.

      Taco Sauce:

      1. In a food processor or blender, add the sour cream, mayo, chipotle peppers, garlic, and lime juice. Blend until smooth.

      To Assemble Tacos:

      1. Heat flour or corn tortillas, place fish inside and top with cabbage, lettuce, fresh sliced avocados, mango salsa, and taco sauce.  Serve with Mexican rice, beans, and a side of chips. 

      2. Enjoy!
