Blue Ribbon Recipe

These tacos are plain incredible. I was expecting them to be good, but was overwhelmed by the impact of all the flavors when the ingredients were mixed together.

The marinade for the fish would be fun to try in other fish dishes as well. I think it would be good to use on the grill or even on a plank.

Kudos to Shell on this recipe. I can’t wait to enjoy them again!

NOTE: The hint to squeeze the heated lime on the taco really hits the spot! Don't forget. The Test Kitchen

How to Make My Texas Fish Tacos

Step-by-Step

SAUCE: In medium bowl mix together yogurt and mayo. Gradually stir in fresh lime juice until consistence is slightly runny, then add jalapeno, capers, oregano, cumin and cayenne.
FISH: In a medium bowl combine the lime juice, tequila, cumin, salt and pepper; Mix throughly. Add fish and toss to coat; marinate for 10 minutes
After marinating, coat fish with flour and Old Bay. Heat just enough oil to coat bottom of pan and lightly fry your fish until golden brown. Place fried fish on paper toweling to drain.
Drizzle same pan with additional olive oil once again and cook tortillas until limp but not crispy.

HINT: Use two tortillas for each taco so they aren't as messy to eat.
Add your toppings and enjoy!

HINT: Take a whole lime and put it in the microwave for about 8 seconds. The lime will be oh-so juicey! Squeeze it all over the taco once you have it ready to eat! YUM YUM!
