Grilled Fish Tacos With Spicy Pickled Onions Recipes

GRILLED FISH TACOS WITH SPICY PICKLED ONIONS

Steps:

• Combine orange juice, lime juice, oil, spices, and cilantro in a shallow dish. Add the fish, turning to coat. Let marinate 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat bring to onion, vinegar, jalapeno, and sugar to a boil. Immediately remove from heat; let cool. Discard jalapeno.
• Heat the grill to high. Cook the fish over indirect heat for 8 minutes, or until cooked through. Pull apart into large flakes. Cook the tortillas over direct heat for 20 seconds on each side, until soft and slightly charred in places.

FISH TACOS WITH CABBAGE SLAW AND PICKLED RED ONIONS

Steps:

• Combine the red wine vinegar with 1/2 cup cold water in a small bowl. Stir in the salt, sugar and hot sauce. Add the sliced onion and let sit for at least 1 hour. These can be stored, refrigerated in an airtight container, for 1 week.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Place tomatillos and jalapeno on the pan and allow to char on all sides, flipping with tongs as needed. Allow to cool slightly. Remove stems and add to a blender. Add half of the lime juice and half the cilantro. Pulse until combined and smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids; it's okay to have some lumps). Set aside to cool.
• Add cabbages, carrot and 1/4 cup pickled onions to a medium bowl. Stir to combine. Drizzle olive oil and some of the pickling liquid into the bowl until everything is lightly coated. Set aside to marinate until ready to serve.
• Clean grill pan if necessary, then heat it over medium heat and brush with olive oil. Sprinkle fillets with salt and smoked paprika. Grill fillets on both sides until cooked through and flaky, about 3 minutes per side. Warm tortillas on grill pan until soft and pliable.
• Top each tortilla with 1/2 fillet of fish, tomatillo salsa and slaw. Garnish with sliced avocado, Cotija, remaining cilantro and lime wedges. Serve!
