Fish Tacos

Abelman · Jan 21, 2012

We did up some fish tacos last night. Always a family favorite, even for the kids.

I grilled up some Orange Roughy (on the grill grates actually). I brush a very light coat of canola oil on them and then put on an orange based rub for fish. It works perfectly. Been using the combo for years. Anyway, grilled at 400° for about 10 minutes total. Check out the pic on the plate where it's shredded. I didn't add a single thing to that, it just finishes that moist:

Had some sliced fresh avacado, cottage cheese with chives and the main course. I use corn tortillas heated in some EVOO. Then, a healthy dose of fish, a little spicy Rotel, and some home made slaw that is simply cabbage, lime juice, kosher salt, black pepper and some olive oil. I mix it right before we eat so it still has the crunch. Just a tad of shredded cheese to boot. Last topping to go on for me is some Sriracha Sauce:

Thanks for looking.

Good to see you again Abel!
Love the looks of that Phish n' tacos!

Hey guys, thanks for the kind words.

As for the rub, sorry, that one is a family deal.

As for the tortillas, not homemade but locally made and fresh.

Phubar, thanks as well. You still put up some amazing stuff time and time again. Couple folks didn't like me being here so I've kept a low profile. That's life as Frank Sinatra used to say, LOL.

Ok neighbor, family secret, I can respect that.
I'm brand new around here, but even I wouldn't dangle a family recipe on this forum and then clam up on the only key piece of the puzzle. :yell:
Lets see what you can make that you will share with us.
Guess I'm not surprised about your keeping a low profile. :icon_pissed

Ahh, I didn't use a rub on the fish, that's it, yeah, that's it.

However, if I did, I would just find a rub that is meant for fish and that you enjoy. Afterall, as much as we do, some is objective and a lot is subjective. Thus, more art than science most of the time.

Pete.... looks killer! :thumb:
Good to see ya.

Abelman · Jan 21, 2012

Hey Jeanie, always nice to see an old friend and I'm not referring to your age :doh:

Thanks for the kind words. Hope all is well. Your blog tells me you're doing just fine and I'm missing out on all the good vittles you're mixing up out there.
