Big Island Fish Tacos
[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_size=”initial”]
These fish tacos are destined to become a favorite. Bright lime, creamy avocado, cool tangy sauce and flaky fish combine for a perfect balance of flavors and textures. They are simple to prepare and ideal for a quick weeknight dinner.
In Hawaii you might find Opakapaka used in this recipe, but everyday white fish such as cod works beautifully wherever you are. Warm the corn tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or fry them in a little oil if you prefer them crisp. Either way, the results are delicious and easy.

-
Cut 3 limes into 6 wedges each.
Cut the avocados into chunks.
Slice the onion into thin strips.
Slice the cabbage into thin strips.
Set the garnishes aside.
-
Combine the lime juice, sour cream, mayonnaise, salt and a pinch of cayenne in a medium bowl. Whisk until smooth and well blended.
-
Warm several tortillas in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 1 to 2 minutes per side until lightly browned. Alternatively, fry them in a small pan with about 3/4 cup oil (enough to reach 1/4 inch up the pan) and drain on paper towels.
-
Pat the fish dry and season with salt, pepper and a light sprinkle of cayenne. Coat a grill pan or skillet with oil and heat over medium-high until hot. Add the fish to the pan.
-
Cook the fish without moving it until the underside is golden, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the fish is opaque and flakes easily, another 2 to 3 minutes depending on thickness. Transfer to a plate or cutting board and break into roughly 1/2-inch pieces.
-
Divide the fish among the warm tortillas. Top each with avocado, cabbage and onion to taste.
-
Drizzle with the sauce and serve with lime wedges.
