Why are fish tacos so much better among all the tacos available? It’s as if they were made for each other, with the light and flaky fish cooked in chile, lime, and butter, a firmly wonderful charred corn tortilla, a good fresh (peach?) salsa, and perhaps a sauce like spicy mayo, since what is this site if not a never-ending love letter to the sauce?

Today I’d like to speak with you, the individual who has been eating out frequently and avoiding the grocery shop since early June. You know who I’m talking about — I’m referring to my buddies who have eaten from food trucks, coffee shops, breweries, brunch locations, outdoor eateries, bakeries, and tea bars in the last 48 hours—those who have been on point with their ice cream cone game over the past six weeks.

Between bike rides, beach vacations, and lazy afternoons “working from home,” the ones whose passion for eating out with friends and family, and, to be honest, just anyone who will grab a meal with you, could be the reason you’ve forgotten how to cook a meal. Eggs? Toast?

How do we go about doing it all over again? It’s mid-July, and life is good, and you’ve given up on meal planning, all because of one word: #summer.

Hello there. You may believe you can hide, but I can see you and recognize you because I AM YOU. If we’re going to eat fish, let’s eat good fish.

Guys, this isn’t going to blow anyone’s mind, but Minnesota fish can be iffy. It can be difficult to find decent quality fish year-round unless you live on the lake and catch your fresh walleye regularly (ice fishing, anyone?).

Last year, I attended the Sustainable Seafood Blog Conference – because, yeah, my entire life is sometimes a parody – and it completely blew my mind. I learned a lot about seafood, including sustainable procedures for both wilds caught and ocean-farmed fish and being a better seafood consumer.

I’m thrilled to announce that the fish we’re highlighting today – Australis Barramundi – has a lot of positive qualities.

DELICIOUS. Non-fishy-tasting. Flaky, light, and white. Cooking is simple.

It’s also the first ocean-reared marine fish to receive the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood-Watch Best Choice rating and other honours and recognition for adopting the best methods and high standards in the ocean farming industry. YES Here are some exciting and essential advancements taking place.

Hormones, chemicals, and colourants are not used in their production. Mercury, PCBs, and other contaminants that you don’t want in your fish are not detectable. Baby, you’re pure and clean.

Above all, they’re available in REGULAR GROCERY STORES. For 99 per cent of the meals I eat, this is a requirement. Hello, Costco, Whole Foods, and other retailers. Now is the time for everyone to get in the automobile.

  • Author: Mustafa Rangoonwala
  • Prep Time: 10
  • Cook Time: 20
  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Category: Dinner
  • Cuisine: American

Ingredients

Scale

Chilli Lime Fish.

  • 3 tbsp. Butter, 1 tbsp. lime juice, melted
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • A quarter teaspoon of garlic powder
  • A half teaspoon of salt
  • Australis Barramundi, 12 oz (can be purchased at Costco)

To make the peach salsa, combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

  • 1 chopped peach
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped cilantro leaves
  • 1/4 cup minced red onion
  • Seeded and minced half a jalapeno
  • Salt and lime juice to taste

Other Taco Requirements:

  • Tortillas made of corn
  • Mayonnaise as a fast sauce (see notes)
  • Toppings such as avocado, lime, or other

Instructions

Chilli lime fish: Defrost the fish by immersing it in cold water for 15 minutes in the packaging—Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Combine the butter, lime juice, chilli powder, garlic powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Bake for 15 minutes after placing the fish in a small oven-safe dish and pouring the sauce over it. Remove the fish from the oven, flake it into small pieces, and combine it with any sauce accumulated in the pan. Cook for an additional 5 minutes to allow the sauce to sink into the fish.

Peach salsa: Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

Tacos: Assemble, layer, pile it high, squeeze more lime on top, and eat.

Notes

Save 1-tbsp of the chilli lime sauce and combine with mayonnaise or sour cream to make a fast sauce. Drizzle some of this sauce on top of your taco.

People Also Ask:

What kind of fish should I use for fish tacos?
Most fish species can be used in tacos, but each one requires a different combination of toppings. 1. A saltwater fish with white skin and a mild flavour. Wild, local fish, such as snapper, mahi-mahi, grouper, flounder, halibut, or cod, is best for Baja-style tacos.
What goes good with walleye?
5 Delicious Side Dishes to Serve with Grilled or Steamed Fish Flakier fish, such as fluke, tilapia, and flounder, cook best covered in foil on the grill or in the oven.
Potatoes. Whether you serve them—roasted, fried, or mashed—potatoes are always a fantastic side dish, Pasta, Salad, Quinoa.
How do you scorch flour tortillas? 

This can be done on a gas or electric stove. In a skillet, place one of the tortillas on the bottom of a heated skillet and let the tortilla brown to your liking. Tortillas become crispy when they are charred, and I love crispy tortillas!

If you have a gas stove, carefully place the corn or flour tortilla straight on the grate and reduce the heat to a low setting; the hot flame will quickly scorch the tortilla. To remove the warm tortilla safely, use a pair of tongs. I only scorch one side of the tortilla, but that’s just me!

Can I use corn tortillas to replace flour tortillas?
So, if you don’t like corn tortillas, don’t worry; you can substitute wheat tortillas. If you have a gluten sensitivity, keep in mind that flour tortillas aren’t always gluten-free; however, certain companies, such as these, do manufacture gluten-free tortillas. I enjoy both maize and flour tortillas; which do you prefer?
Can you store leftover walleye?
You can keep leftover fish in the fridge for up to two days. Cover the fish and put it in an airtight, microwave-safe (or oven-safe) container. To keep the fish from drying out when warming, add a tablespoon of water or lemon juice (or more if reheating a larger quantity of walleye).
