Baja Fish Tacos

Baja Fish Taco
Tomatillo Salsa

Cabbage & Lime Slaw

A favorite food that I eat often are Baja style fish tacos. The Baja influence is that in the warm coastal region of Mexico, cabbage is used as a garnish for the tacos because it is a sturdy green that will stay fresh and crunchy in the warm environment. The city of San Diego in Southern California is famous for its fish tacos, but I stay away from the deep fried fish and spicy mayonnaise based sauce that is common there, I prefer using a lime vinaigrette to dress the cabbage and simply grilling or sauteing the seasoned fish. I used a spicy green tomatillo salsa and plenty of fresh avocado in mine. For the fish I recommend using Mahi because its firm and its meaty texture holds up really well on the grill as well as being delicious. These tacos are simple to make with only a few ingredients, you will be able to taste all the amazing flavors and textures.
