I want to share with you my all-time favorite fish tacos recipe! A lot of flavors go into these fish tacos consisting of fresh ingredients and perfectly seasoned fish.

Fish tacos recipe 794x1000

The spicy fish sauce is the best, you have got to include it – it’s creamy and has a kick to it from the hot sauce. It’s definitely the cherry on top! You will be licking your fingers after this delicious meal. This recipe of fish tacos is super easy to make, it’s the best go-to recipe to please your family and guests.

So, let’s talk about these fish tacos!

My family is a fan of halibut, mostly for the softness of the fish and usually, there are no bones involved for the kids. (safety). Also, we just love the taste of halibut, but you are welcome to use any kind of fish you might have on hand or one you like.Fish tacos recipe 1 744x1000

Alright, now the fish sauce!

The amount of sauce this recipe provides is enough for seven fish tacos, but if you’re a lover of a lot of sauce on your tacos I recommend to double the sauce recipe.

What do I need to make this yummy recipe?

Halibut is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and selenium.

Avocado is filled with fiber and potassium.

Tomato is rich in lycopene, supporting heart health.

Romaine lettuce gives your body vitamin K and folate.

Tortillas are always the base to any taco. You can use either corn or flour in this recipe.

Along with those ingredients, you will need fish taco seasoning, olive oil, and water.

What do I need to make the spicy fish sauce?

  • mayonnaise
  • sour cream
  • lime
  • cumin
  • garlic powder
  • sriracha
