Fish Tacos: An Introduction
 Fish Tacos--It took me awhile to get used to those words
together. Of course, my first trip to Mexico
cured me of the fish taco willies. Actually, it makes a lot of sense to think that
fish is a natural to go into a taco. Tacos are about as Mexican as food gets, and
Mexico is a coastal nation. I've found a few recipes to get you started on your own
fish taco adventure.
- Easy Fish Tacos--This is actually closer to fish nachos--but it's a great recipe if you
aren't too confident in the kitchen yet. It's easy, and not to "weird."
- Double
Play Fish Taco--With avocados and salsa, this taco is
beautiful and tasty.
- Grilled Fish Tacos--This recipe is best with catfish, which makes it perfect for the
Midwesterner who cannot find a fish taco in any local restaurant.
- Beer Batter Tacos--Everything tastes good in beer batter! If your tastes don't run
towards exotic fish, this recipe is great with cornmeal in place of the flour and any
white meat fish.
- Tacos
with Fish and Potatoes--A different take on fish tacos
that mixes some odd ingredients together.
- Fish Tacos with Citrus Salsa-This is an experience in eating! The full recipe is a mouth watering
meal with tacos, salsa, and cole slaw. By the time you finish, you'll have six more
meals planned with the different recipes on this page.
- Garlic Prawn Tacos--For the fish taco connoisseur. I cannot wait to try this recipe.
Somebody pass the napkins, I think I'm drooling!
Looking for less commitment in your fish taco? Taco Del Mar specializes in fish
tacos, and they have a great burrito menu if you aren't up to the challenge. On the
West coast you can order from Rock'N Tacos right
on the Internet (or take a walk on the beach and visit a taco shack).
What's your favorite fish taco recipe? Where do you find them when you eat out?
