Grilled Red Snapper Tacos

HAPPYGOODTIME


List of Ingredients




For the Fish:

8 ounces fresh red snapper fillets or other mild fish (preferably wild, fresh caught)
1 tablespoon high smoke point oil, such as peanut
Sprinkle of salt, smoked paprika and cayenne pepper

For the Tacos:

6 small yellow corn tortillas (I used Mission extra thin)
3/4 cup red cabbage (finely chopped)
Fresh cilantro for garnish (chopped)
1 Juicy lemon or lime
Salsa (Make your own homemade if you have the time! Recipe here)


Recipe



Preheat a grill pan (or non-stick skillet) to medium heat
Season fish while pan is heating
Brush the pan with the peanut oil
Gently place the fish on the grill pan, and grill for 2 minutes on the first side
Gently turn and cook for 1 minute on the second side
My fillets were quite thin, about 1/4 inch. If yours are more on the thick side you may need to increase the cooking time by 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side
Remove fish from pan, and tent with foil to keep warm while you prepare the toppings
Cover tortillas with a damp paper towel, and gently heat in the microwave. 30 seconds, turn and cook for an additional 30 seconds
Assemble tacos, with a fresh squeeze of lemon on the fish and enjoy. You made taco magic.
