Fish tacos are a great dinner when you’re looking for something light and fresh on an early spring night. The best thing about a taco is that you can customize it to include your favorite flavors! Here’s one that my family loves.

Ingredients

Fish Tacos

  • 1 and 1/2 pounds (680 grams) cod or any otherfirm white-flesh fish

  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika

  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Pickled Onions

In a blender or food processor, blend together the avocado, sour cream, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.
