Start by seasoning the mahi mahi fish fillets on both sides. Make sure you coat the fish well and press it down to stick.
In a large skillet (or indoor grill), add in the oil over medium high heat and then add in the fish. Sear for 7-8 minutes until ready to flip.
Flip and cook on the other side for about 7 minutes until the mahi mahi has cooked through.
Remove the fish onto a cutting boar and slice into strips. You can drizzle some lime juice and cilantro.
In the meantime, make the sauce by combining all ingredients in a blender until smooth.
Assemble the tacos: Take a charred tortilla, add the fish, the slaw, avocados, jalapeños and a final drizzle of sauce.
Serve right away and enjoy.
For delicious grilled tacos, you'll season the fish as above in the recipe and add in the olive oil. Make sure the fish is well coated in spice and oil.
Preheat the grill to medium high and oil your crates or use a perforated grill pan. Grill the mahi mahi fish for 5-7 minutes per side until cooked through. Remove and proceed with assembling the tacos.
For delicious fish tacos, you can use any white fish fillet. You can use salmon, cod, or tilapia; however, I used mahi-mahi because it does not have that fishy taste, and it turns out really firm and juicy.
If you do not want to cook the mahi-mahi fish in a skillet, you have the option of baking it as well.
Season the mahi-mahi fish with seasoning and oil, then place it on a baking sheet and pop it in a 400 degrees oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Alternatively, you can broil it. You want to cook it till the fish reaches 140 degrees F. You might need a meat thermometer for this. When it reads 140 degrees, it means the fish is ready to be served.
Fish tacos are quite versatile, so they go well with tons of stuff. For instance, I used the poblano sauce and fish taco slaw in this recipe, but you can use any sauce or topping of your preference. If you want your tacos to be crunchy, you can top them with lettuce, cabbage, diced onions, and coleslaw.
However, if you’re looking for something creamy, you can use sour cream, guacamole, or some other creamy dressing. For added flavor, you can top your tacos with mango salsa and pineapple salsa or strawberry corn salsa.
As I said, the possibilities are many! It just depends on your taste and preferred toppings!
