The chef is at work tonight...what to make for dinner...hmmm. As I make my way through the aisles of Whole Foods promising that I will ONLY get items needed for dinner (this never stays true), it hits me! I will make my healthy, easy Fish Tacos! I think I could eat these every night as I love spicy food especially mexican.
I pick up some fresh alaskan cod, green chili tortillas, chipotle salsa, pico and a corn salsa. I am aiming for a 20 minute cook time to keep it simple. I season the cod with salt, pepper, chipotle cayenne pepper, garlic and onion and saute with oil. After a couple of minutes on each side, the cod starts to flake nicely and I break up the pieces as they fall naturally.
Now for my delicious, healthy sauce. It wouldn't be a meal (for me) without a healthy slathering of some sort of sauce. I'm saucy. I'll admit it. I typically use chipotle salsa or chipotle peppers in the can (found in the mexican section). If you get the peppers just put about 1/3 of it in your food processor to puree. Make sure you taste the salsa for the amount of spice you would like to have. Then mix the salsa with greek yogurt. I love Greek Gods honey yogurt, it adds a sweetness to the spice that balances the sauce great. Chill before serving. All that is left is assembly! I add cabbage, shredded cheese, pico or corn salsa...whatever I have around. Each time you make these can be a different rendition of an old favorite. Enjoy!
