Fish/Shrimp Tacos

My husband has never had fish tacos and I have been craving fish. So we googled for different recipes and found a recipe for 'Baja Tacos'. They looked great. But we have no idea how to follow a recipe. (More so, we use recipes and images as inspiration but never choose to follow them).


So here is our version.
Note: Keto/Gluten Free will depend on the tortillas you use.

Ingredients:
  • Tortillas 12+ (Corn/Flour etc. This is the primary carb and carb count will vary depending on what you use)
  • Finely sliced avocado
  • Chipotle Mayo (we just bought ours from the store)
  • Fish/Shrimp (Your choice. What ever your budget will allow)
  • Chihuahua Cheese (Mexican brand cheese, similar to Queso Fresco)


Seasoning for the fish/Shrimp:

The hubby states he used all equal parts.
  • 1 tsp Celery Salt
  • 1 tsp Oregano
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Ground Red Pepper
  • 1 tsp Crushed Red Pepper
  • 1 tsp Ancho Chile Powder 
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Pepper


We pan fried the shrimp/fish and used the above seasoning on them. Once they were cooked any left over seasoning from the mix that he made was sprinkled on top. 

For the slaw we used the following:
  • 1 1/2 cups Red Cabbage (Finely shredded)
  • 1/2 cup White onions (Diced)
  • 1 cup Tomatoes (Diced)
  • 1 cup Alfalfa sprouts
  • Cilantro (optional. I hate this stuff but the hubby likes it)
  • Fresh lime juice from 1 lime
Put these into a container, shake the holy hell out of them to mix and then refridgerate.

To make things even more yummy- whatever tortilla you use, spray with oil and pan fry till crispy. I like crunchy things so this always made me happy!


Nutrition facts coming shortly. I am too busy stuffing my face with these bad boys!


Okay- Couldn't wait. I wanted to get these posted. These are AWESOME!!!

Nutritional data below does not include Cilantro or the Chipotle Mayo we used. 

The Carb count listed is for 2 taco using the measurements above and tortillas that are 10 grams of carbs per tortilla. Please keep in mind that this can be adjusted depending on what tortilla's you use.
