GRILLED FISH TACOS with CHIPOTLE COLESLAW
One word….Fantastic!
1 pound halibut fillet (or your favorite fresh white-fleshed fish)
Juice of 1 lime
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
Eight (6-inch) corn tortillas, cut in half
1 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon adobo sauce from a can of Chipotles in Adobo
(or more to taste)
1 teaspoon honey
Coleslaw
2 cups shredded red cabbage
2 cups shredded Napa cabbage
1/4 cup freshly chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon honey
Charred Tomato Salsa and Guacamole, for garnish
Season the fish with the lime juice, salt and pepper. Allow the fish to marinate for 10 minutes before cooking.
In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, adobo sauce and honey.
To make the coleslaw, combine the two cabbages, cilantro, lime juice,
salt and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in 1/3 cup of the chipotle mayonnaise, making sure the slaw is evenly moistened. Add extra honey to taste and stir to blend. Cover and refrigerate for 1/2 an hour before serving.
Fire up the BBQ or heat a stovetop grill pan over high heat. Brush the grill with the canola oil and grill the fish, turning once during cooking, until cooked through and opaque, about 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove the fish from the grill and using a fork, flake the fish into large chunks.
To serve, warm the tortillas. Fill each tortilla with a spoonful of the coleslaw, grilled fish, extra chipotle mayonnaise, salsa and guacamole.
