Fish Tacos

I'm not sure why I wanted to try making fish tacos. I never eat them when we go to Rubio's, but I'd been seeing some recipes floating around I wanted to try.
I found the recipe for the yogurt lime sauce and mango salsa at Love and Olive Oil. They were both really yummy, but I have to admit I didn't use as much jalapeno in the salsa as was called for, cause I'm a really big weenie.
I had to find a different fish recipe than what they used because their's had no breading. Way too healthy! So I turned to my new friend Rich, who seemed to know what he's talking about.
I wasn't sure what kind of fish to use, so I went with tilapia, cause it was cheaper than mahi mahi.
I deep friend them in some canola oil until the were golden brown. Yum-O!
Now for a gratuitous cute dog shot. This is Cody, he's about 80 in people years and loves his new bed.

  3. I saw this thing on TV about how tilapia became popular because they are really good at cleaning poop out of water. Just sayin'.

  10. Hi Mandy,
    Yes I did use his recipe, except I think he said to use a dark beer, and I didn't cause I had Rolling Rock in the fridge.
    I was just checking out your spiced pecans...nice :)
