Yield: Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2  teaspoons  kosher salt
  • 1  teaspoon  ground cumin
  • 1/4  teaspoon  dried oregano
  • 1/8  teaspoon  garlic powder
  • 1/8  teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/8  teaspoon  cayenne pepper
  • 4  (4-ounce) mahi mahi fillets
  • 12  corn tortillas
  • Cooking spray
  • Nectarine-Avocado Salsa
  • Zesty Sour Cream

Preparation

Combine first 6 ingredients, and sprinkle over all surfaces of the fish. Grill fish, skin side up, on lightly oiled grates over medium-high heat (350° to 400°) for 4 minutes. Turn fish over, and grill 4 minutes or until fish becomes opaque and begins to flake. Remove skin, and break fish into chunks.

Lightly coat tortillas with cooking spray, and grill 1 to 2 minutes each side.

Fill each tortilla with fish and top with Nectarine-Avocado Salsa and Zesty Sour Cream. Serve immediately.

This recipe made its way into the top ten with a bullet. Who knew fish tacos were so awesome? Don't change a thing, it's perfect the way it is. We have been experimenting with other white fish and they all do well. Plus it's crazy easy.07/24/08
