Fish Tacos with Mango Salsa
Delicious, mild fish tacos topped with mango salsa and a simple slaw. Easy to throw together and perfect for any night of the week!
I love the sweetness from the mango slaw, crunch from the simple slaw and spiciness from the siracha mayo. Everything together is so delicious!
How to make fish tacos:
First, cut the fish into smaller pieces so it will easily fit in a tortilla. Then, toss the fish in the flour and seasonings and set aside in the fridge. Fish tends to get cold quickly, so I recommend getting all of your other components ready and cooking the fish last so its warm and ready to eat. Prepare the mango salsa, slaw and sriracha mayo and then set those aside. For the sriracha mayo you can add more or less sriracha depending on how you want it to taste/ how spicy you want. Just make sure to taste to season all of the components as you go because you may want more salt, lime juice, etc.
After everything is ready to go, pan sear the fish in butter and olive oil until cooked through. Heat up some tortillas, get some limes, avocado, cilantro and build your fish tacos!
I hope you all love this recipe for fish tacos and mango salsa!
