These were delicious! I made them for my friends and they loved them. The fish was cooked perfectly and the slaw was a great addition.

I love these fish tacos! They're so easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I usually use salmon instead of cod, and I add a bit of avocado to the slaw. Yum!

Easy to make and delicious! I used tilapia instead of cod and it turned out great. The cabbage slaw was a nice touch.

These fish tacos were a hit with my family! The fish was cooked perfectly and the flavors were amazing. I especially loved the chipotle crema sauce. Will definitely be making these again.
