With a new twist on a traditional dish, fish tacos are rising in popularity every year.  Tacos made in the traditional style with beef or chicken have been an American favorite for decades, but this version, grilled and made with fish, is a healthy alternative.  The trend has most restaurants using a fried or battered fish filet, but in this adaption, we are seasoning the fish with an intense rub, then grilling it over either a gas or charcoal flame, for a lighter but still very flavorful taco.  All the accompaniments are made ahead of time and the filets grill quickly, making this an ideal recipe for outdoor picnics, camping or tailgating.   For this recipe, we recommend Tilapia as your fish filet of choice.  Tilapia holds up well on the grill, is readily available and affordable.  Some other good choices are Mahi Mahi, Cobia, or Amberjack.  Snapper’s flavor lends itself well in this dish, but the filets are delicate and difficult to grill.   Another twist on tradition is salsa.  Since becoming a common addition to the American table, it’s fast replacing ketchup with it’s many interesting flavors from the mild, fresh tomato version to the smoky roasted chili varieties.  For grilled fish tacos, I prefer the tangy salsa Verde, made from tomatillos and cilantro to brighten up the dish.                                                                      For the Fish 1 Pound, fresh Tilapia Your favorite Dry Jerk Seasoning blend or blackening spice, we like Dizzy Pig’s Jamaican Firewalk seasoning.
