Steps to Make Mexican Fish Tacos Recipe

Marinated Mexican Fish Tacos Slaw

We love grilled fish tacos around my house… and i've had my share of fish stick to the cooking grate when grilling, but there is a simple way to prevent it.

Recipe Summary Marinated Mexican Fish Tacos Slaw

I love coleslaw but I don't love the fat and calories from mayonnaise. This slaw is light, fresh, and the perfect topping for fish or shrimp tacos, or it can hold its own as a side dish. Every time I make it I'm asked for the recipe! The Granny Smith apple is the key ingredient that sets this apart from other slaws of this type.

Ingredients | Mexican Fish Tacos Recipe

1 lime, cut in wedges

1 large Granny Smith apple, coarsely grated

2 cups coleslaw mix

½ cup finely chopped jicama

2 green onions, diced into 1/4-inch pieces

¼ cup shredded carrot

¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

½ fresh jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar

1 teaspoon white sugar

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper

Directions

Squeeze 2 lime wedges over apple pieces to prevent browning. Toss in a bowl to coat. Add coleslaw mix, jicama, green onions, carrot, cilantro, and jalapeno pepper. Stir in olive oil, rice wine vinegar, and remaining lime juice; add sugar, salt, and black pepper. Toss to mix. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Toss before serving.
