Preparation

Step 1

Allow for around one fish fillet per person. Generously squeeze a few limes over the thawed fish fillets and season them generously with the mojito lime seasoning. Allow them to marinate for around 30 minutes in the seasoning. Grill on a preheated grill (about 400 degrees F) until opaque, fork tender, and flakes easily with a fork. This may take around 4 - 5 minutes per side, but will depend on how hot the grill is, and the thickness of the fish. After removing from the grill, the fish need to stand around 5 minutes. Then you can break them into large pieces with a fork or spatula for filling the tacos.

For the slaw, just combine all ingredients and adjust the seasoning to your liking.

Fill warm/blistered tortillas with southwestern slaw, fish pieces, guacamole, and crema. Squeeze fresh lime wedges over tacos.
