Swai Fish Tacos image

Fantastic new recipe we discovered when we were looking for a way to use some swai we found on sale at the market. The fish is sturdy enough to hold up to sauteeing and really absorbs the flavors perfectly for a great fish taco!

I'm not a huge fan of fish tacos, but these were actually pretty good. The slaw was especially good.

The fish was a little overcooked, but the slaw was delicious. I'll try again with a lower cooking temperature.

These tacos were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

These tacos were easy to make and turned out delicious! I used tilapia instead of swai and it worked out great. The slaw was especially good.

These fish tacos were a hit at my last party! I made them exactly as the recipe said and they turned out perfectly. The fish was cooked perfectly and the slaw was refreshing and tangy. My friends and family raved about them.
