Baja Fish Tacos

This recipe has a bit of a backstory.  When I go food shopping, I am on a mission.  Get only specified items on list and get the heck out of dodge.  If I linger too long, the cart gets filled with all sorts of goodies.  My husband on the other hand browses a bit and always, always, stops to taste the samples.  It gets on my nerves a bit.  This time after much cajoling he gets me to try a sample.  It was really good.  I pick up the last copy of the recipe to bring home.  So here it is:

Baja Fish Tacos

from Hyvee

Ingredients:

½ cup sour cream, or Greek yogurt
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup cilantro, chopped
1 oz. Reduced Sodium Taco Seasoning Mix, divided in half
1 pound tilapia filets, or other firm white fish cut into 1 inch pieces
2 tbsp. olive oil
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 package taco shells
toppings

Steps:

1. Combine sour cream, mayonnaise, cilantro, and 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon seasoning mix in a small bowl.
2. Combine tilapia, olive oil, lemon juice and remaining seasoning mix in medium bowl. Pour into large skillet. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with fork.
3. Fill taco shells with fish mixture. Top with sour cream mixture, and your choice of other toppings.

The Finished Product:

I will give my husband his due.  That sample was totally yummy.  The recipe is super fast and easy to make.  It is a refreshing take on tacos without all the heavy ground beef. The sauce/cream mixture you make in the first step is very tasty.  Good to have as an appetizer of raw veggies.  Enjoy!
