I think these appetizers are better than full-size fish tacos I've had as an entree. Enjoy the creamy salsa drizzle not only on these bites, but also on other Mexican dishes. -Carmell Childs, Ferron, Utah

These were so easy to make and so delicious! I used tilapia and it was perfect. The sauce was also really good. I will definitely be making these again.
