A cab-bage.
Man, I love me some Fish Tacos. I mean, really, you can't get much better. They're fast, easy, and full of delicious veggies and beuatimous flavor.
You can use almost any fish; I like Tilapia because it is cheap, light and flaky. To balance out the fish, I used some extra crunchy veggies: red cabbage, carrots, green peppers and radishes (mainly because that is what we had in the fridge). The sauce (or dressing-ish) is a mustard white wine vinaigrette, very tangy and light.
Here's what you need for 2 people/ 4 tacos:
2 pieces of Tilapia
red cabbage, (we used half of one and had leftover slaw for the next night)
2 carrots
1 green pepper
4 radishes
4 whole wheat tortillas
For the dressing/sauces:
1 lemon, juiced
Dijon mustard
apple cider vinegar
white wine, Chardonnay etc.
extra virgin olive oil
Italian flat leaf parsely
salt and pepper to taste
Get you grill going, while you prep the fillings for the tacos. Get some red cabbage. Take out the heart by making two triangle cuts. Then, thinly slice up.
Add to a large bowl.
Take a couple carrots out, take off the tops and tails, then peel.
Grate carrots.
Make a dressing for the carrot-cabbage slaw. Add the juice from 1 lemon, and a couple teaspoons of Dijon mustard.
Add a couple of teaspoons of apple cider vinegar and white wine.
Mix together with a fork. Add a couple of teaspoons of olive oil.
Salt and pepper that mess.
Mix together.
Top cabbage with grated carrots and dressing.
Mix it all up.
Get 3-4 radishes.
Take off the tops and tails, then, thinly slice, add to bowl and top with salt and pepper.
Take a green pepper, de-seed etc.
Thinly slice.
Get your Tilapia or other fish out.
Add olive oil and rub down both sides of each fish.
Add salt and pepper to both sides. Then, grill (about 1-2 minutes on each side).
Make a quick topping-dressing. Get some Italian flat leaf parsley from your garden (or store).
De-stem-ish.
Finely chop and add to a bowl.
Add a couple teaspoons of olive oil, white wine, apple cidar vinegar and a couple tablespoons of Dijion mustaed.
Mix together. Taste. Add more of what you need. Add salt and pepper.
Get fish off the grill. Awesome.
Get out your whole wheat tortillas.
Brown either on the open stove top or in a toaster oven.
Let make some tacos!
