Soft Fish Tacos with Farmer’s Market Salsa
Stop by the farmer’s market on the way home and these garden-fresh fish tacos will be on the table in no time. Other fish, such as halibut, snapper and flounder, can be used in place of the cod.
Ingredients
12 soft corn tortillas
1/2 teaspoon salt
For the salsa:
1/2 cup fresh corn kernels, cut from one medium ear
1 small orange belle pepper, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 small peach, pitted and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/2 seedless cucumber, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 plum tomato, seeded and chopped
1 small jalapeño pepper, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
For the fish:
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds cod fillets, cut into 12 3-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
- Combine the salsa ingredients in a medium bowl.
- Combine the cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub mixture evenly over fish. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add half of the fish pieces and cook, turning once, until fish flakes easily with a fork, 6-8 minutes. Repeat with remaining fish.
- Heat tortillas according to package directions. Top each tortilla with 1 piece fish, salsa, and crema. Serve immediately.
