Basic Fish Tacos If you are using a firm fish then by all means use the outdoor grill. Fish filets cook very rapidly and fall apart easily so pan frying on the cooktop works very well.

INSTRUCTIONS
• In a medium shallow bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, paprika, chili powder, cumin, and cayenne. • Add fish filets, tossing until evenly coated and marinate 15 minutes. • In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, heat vegetable oil. Remove filets from marinade and season both sides with salt and pepper. Add fish flesh-side down. Cook until opaque and cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
