Grilled Fish Tacos with Chipotle Crema

  • 1/2 cup Mexican crema or sour cream
  • 3 limes
  • 1 TBSP finely chopped chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
  • Fresh cilantro
  • 1 lb mahi-mahi, halibut, tuna (I also use the breaded flounder from Sam's that you just bake from frozen)
  • 1/2 TBSP chili powder (preferably ancho chile powder)
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Soft corn Tortillas
  • 1 cup finely shredded cabbage
  • 1 avocado, peeled, pitted, and thinly sliced
  • Hot sauce
  1. Clean and oil gril or grill pan and preheat on medium high
  2. Mix crema with juice of one lime, the chipotle pepper, and a handful of chopped fresh cilantro.
  3. Drizzle a light coating of oil on fish, and rub on the chile powder, salt and pepper. Place fish on grill and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 4 minutes. Warm the tortillas.
  4. Divide the fish evenly among the warm tortillas, add a bit of cabbage, spoon on crema and top with avocado slices and fresh cilantro.
  5. Serve each taco with wedge of lime and some hot sauce.
