Tips:

  • Use fresh fish. For the best flavor and texture, use fresh, wild-caught fish fillets. If you can't find fresh fish, frozen fish that has been thawed is also a good option.
  • Choose the right tortillas. Corn tortillas are traditional for fish tacos, but you can also use flour tortillas. If you're using corn tortillas, be sure to warm them up before filling them. This will help prevent them from cracking.
  • Make your own mango salsa. Store-bought mango salsa can be good, but it's easy to make your own and it will taste much fresher. Be sure to use ripe mangoes and red onion for the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the fish. Fish cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked fish will be dry and tough.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings. Fish tacos can be served with a variety of toppings, such as guacamole, sour cream, shredded cabbage, or pico de gallo. Choose your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Conclusion:

Fish tacos are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. They're also a great way to get your kids to eat fish. With a little planning, you can easily make fish tacos at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give fish tacos a try!
