Absolutely fantastic flavours - my partner and I both agree that we prefer these to battered fish tacos, both in terms of flavour and how much healthier they are!

I made red cabbage coleslaw instead of the lettuce, also no parsley, doubled the cilantro. AWESOME! My husband eats fish tacos a lot when on business trips and said these were the best he has ever had! I used a cast iron grill pan and grilled the fish on the stove top as we still have snow on the deck. It tasted like summer inside! Delish!
