Flaky Fish Tacos with Mango Avocado Salsa

June 17, 2014 by Hillary 10 Comments

Monday night’s dinner looked like this:

taco

Flaky fish tacos with mango avocado salsa and a side of black beans with fresh corn — no dairy, no gluten, all the summertime flavor.

I’ve been making this salsa since my family went to Mexico in 2004. Having deja vu? I wrote about this salsa over four years ago (!) in this post: Eating Down Memory Lane. Holy flashback!

I am pretty sure this fresh fruit salsa will never go out of style.

Flaky Fish (Cod or Halibut suggested) >>

  • Marinate fresh cod fillets with fresh lime juice, olive oil, cumin, minced garlic, and salt in the Ziploc bag in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350F. Place fish in a baking dish or parchment lined baking sheet and bake 12-15 until cooked through and flaky. The more lime juice, the flakier the fish.

Mango Avocado Salsa >>

  • Dice 1 large mango and 1 large avocado into small pieces. Add to a small mixing bowl and add the juice of 1 to 2 whole limes.
  • Add diced red onion (amount to your liking), 1/2 finely minced jalapeno, and a generous handful of minced fresh cilantro. Season with salt to taste. Let chill in the fridge before serving.

Recipe Notes >>

  1. As you can see, precise measurements for these tacos aren’t required.
  2. I imagine the fish would also be great grilled.
  3. They pair quite nicely with kombucha “margaritas”: Gingerade kombucha + tequila + fresh lime.

If you make fish tacos at home, how do you prepare them?

    Yum! I love, love mango salsa! I wonder how a different liquor would taste with kombucha? I’m not a tequila person, but a cocktail with gingerade kombucha sounds awesome!

    I love the combination of avocado and mango! I like a lot of cilantro with a bit of lime and spice :)

Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴 I was expect Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴

I was expecting all things beer, brats and pretzels in Leavenworth (not really my jam) 🍺🥨🧀, and while there’s plenty of it, I was delighted to find plenty of delicious eats for my “foodie” taste. 

We went to all of these 3 places more than once during our quick stay - highly recommend! 

☕️ @argonautespressobar: Located at one end of Front Street, this adorable coffee bar has delicious espresso drinks, breakfast items, and the best view! 

🥐 @tumwaterbakery: Incredible pastries, avocado toast on artisanal bread that’s a feast for your eyes... and I’m eager to go back and try their wood-fired pizza! 

🍜 @yodelinbroth: Literally some of the best food I’ve had (ever!), and that’s saying a lot. I had the Yodelin soup with housemade wild PNW halibut bone coconut curry broth, udon noodles, heaps of veggies and wild salmon - it was nourishing to my core as we ate it outside in 30 degree weather. I even bought some of the broth to recreate this meal at home, yum!

winter wonderland getaway ✔️ We had snow much winter wonderland getaway ✔️

We had snow much fun exploring the picturesque Bavarian town of Leavenworth, WA for a much-needed mid-week getaway to the mountains. 🏔

We stayed in a cozy little cabin @logecamps right on the Wenatchee River (one day I’ll be back to stay at the stunning @phleavenworth), played in Enchantment Park, took a drive to Lake Wenatchee, and discovered some of the best food downtown (I’m saving my food recs for another post).

Nestled between the snow-capped Cascade Mountains with the river running through town, it’s quite magical in the middle of winter. ❄️ I’m already dreaming of heading back for some summer adventures!
I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in Florida for two years.
