Tasty Fish Tacos

It's always challenging to figure out new, tasty recipes during lent, when meat is out and fish and seafood are in!  I can only imagine that this is WAY harder when you fast from meat/fish/anything with blood during the entire 40 days of lent, like many Greek Orthodox followers.

We came up with this quick and delicious recipe after seeing a new McCormick packet, Zesty Garlic Shrimp Tacos.  Instead of using the packet as directed, we used it as a dry rub for the fish and grilled it in a grill pan.  Then, we topped it with lots of fresh ingredients - mixed field greens, tomatoes, cheddar cheese, salsa, guacamole, and Greek yogurt - YUM!

Fish Tacos
1 pound white fish (we used Swai, but tipalia, flounder, or even mahi would work)
2 tsp. olive oil
1 packet McCormick Zesty Garlic Shrimp Tacos
soft taco shells (we used Corn and Wheat tortillas)
1 lime
Zest of lime

Toppings
Shredded Cheddar
Mixed field greens
grape tomatoes
Salsa
Guacamole
Greek Yogurt


Rub each side of the fish with olive oil, sprinkle with taco seasoning, lime zest, and rub into both sides of the fish.  All to sit with 15 to 20 minutes to allow fish to season.  Heat grill pan to medium high heat and brush slats with oil (to allow pan to leave marks on fish).  Grill fish 2-3 minutes on either side, until flakey.   Squeeze lime on fish as it's cooking.  Remove fish from grill pan and cut into chunks.  Sprinkle with salt, pepper and toss with lime juice.

Add fish and desired toppings to tortilla and serve immediately.
