As part of the Cookbook Series, we will be sharing a recipe from each section to give you a little taste of what is to come if you buy the whole book! This recipe is in Megan's section, remember how I said bold and fresh flavors, this is for sure one of those. These tacos are amazing and I have actually made this recipe a few times in the last few months. What gives it a extra kick is the cocoa chili powder blend that goes on the rub for the fish. Ingredients: For the Fish: 2 teaspoons of cocoa chili powder 2 teaspoons of smoked paprika 1 teaspoon of ground cumin 1 teaspoon of garlic powder 1 teaspoon of onion powder 1/2 teaspoon of ground pepper 1/2 teaspoon of salt 6 tilapia filets, or any other white fish For the Mango Salsa: 1 cup of frozen mango chunks thawed 1 red pepper 1 green pepper 1/2 red onion 1/2 cup of cilantro 4 limes 10 - 6 inch flour tortilla shells (Or corn) olive oil for cooking salt and pepper Directions: Dice the peppers, onions and mango chunks into small pieces. Chop up the cilantro. Cut 2 limes in half width wise. In a medium sized bowl add all the diced up vegetables, mango and cilantro. Mix them well, squeeze the lime juice into the salsa and sprinkle a bit of salt and pepper and mix again. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge. In a small bowl mix together the spices. Take tilapia filets and slice them into 1/2 inch slices, place them in a large baking dish and sprinkle seasonings on top. Rub the spices all over the fish to make sure there is an even coat of spices. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. When the skillet is hot, place the fish pieces into it. White fish cooks fast so only cook the pieces about 1 minute on each side, or until it is no longer translucent. When the pieces are finished cooking, set them aside on a plate until you need to assemble the tacos. To assemble the tacos, take one tortilla shell and place 3-4 pieces of the fish on the bottom. Spoon 3 tablespoons of salsa on top. Drizzle the taco with cilantro cream dressing. Serve and eat the tacos immediately. Cilantro Cream Sauce: 1 cup of loosely packed cilantro (No stems) 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt 1/4 olive oil juice from 1 lime (or more to taste) 1 clove of garlic (minced) 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt In a blender or a small food processor blend all the ingredients until it is smooth. Pour into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for an hour before using. I hope you will enjoy making these, I know I sure love them!
