Favorite Recipe: Baja Fish Tacos

This is another recipe creation that I came up with to satisfy the husby's cravings for fish tacos from McCormick & Schmick's. It has proven to be a favorite among the family, and even The Fred likes it. Enjoy!

Baja Fish Tacos

Ingredients:

2-3 Mahi-Mahi Fillets (or other firm white fish)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 package taco seasoning
1 package angel hair slaw
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons cilantro
2 tablespoons diced jalapeno
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons Texas Pete hot sauce
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 package burrito-size flour tortillas
1 container fresh pico de gallo or salsa

Directions:

1) In a bowl, combine angel hair slaw, vinegar, cilantro, and diced jalapeno. Mix well and put in refrigerator to marinate.
2) Mix together sour cream and hot sauce and refrigerate.
3) Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cut Mahi-Mahi fillets into one-inch wide strips. Combine flour and taco seasoning and mix well. Dredge fish in seasoning mixture until well coated.
4) Add fish to skillet and cook until lightly browned and cooked through.
5) To assemble tacos, spread sour cream mixture onto flour tortillas, add fish, top with slaw and pico de gallo, and sprinkle with cheddar cheese.
