Grilled Fish Tacos

Jump to recipe

<h2 class="subheader">Fish Tacos with Lime-Cilantro ‘Slaw</h2> <p>Found in almost every <em>taqueria</em> on the Baja Peninsula from California down through Mexico are fresh fish tacos. The fish is sometimes served fried, and other times grilled, but is always a refreshing change of pace. These Grilled Fish Tacos are of the lighter variety but still rich in flavor thanks to GOYA® <a title="Ceviche Marinade" href="https://goya.com/en/products/ceviche-marinade" data-id="7872">Ceviche</a>. This citrusy marinade combines lime, onion, cilantro and chile pepper to give the fish a delicious burst of flavor. After the fish is marinated, simply grill, add to corn tortillas and top with a crunchy, quick slaw and a creamy cilantro-lime sauce for your new favorite tacos – west-coast style!</p>
