Grilled fish tacos with sweet corn salsa
(Serves 4)
Ingredients:
For the Salsa:
- 4 ears fresh sweet corn, shucked
- 1/2 red onion, minced
- 2 red chiles or jalapeños, thinly sliced
- 1 ripe but firm avocado, pit removed and small dice
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh basil
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (about 1 lime)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
For the Tacos:
- 1 pound fresh flaky white fish, like tilapia, cod, or halibut
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne
- 2 teaspoons olive oil, plus more for oiling the grill
- 8–10 corn tortillas
Directions:
For the Salsa:
- Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the ears of corn and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes (depending on how fresh they are). Remove and run under cold water until cool enough to handle.
- Run a knife down each ear to remove the kernels. Combine corn kernels with remaining salsa ingredients in a medium bowl. Taste and add more lime juice or salt as needed. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
For the Tacos:
- Prepare a charcoal or gas grill to medium-high heat.
- Rinse fish and pat dry. Cut fish into 4 fillets. Combine spices in a small bowl then sprinkle over both sides of the fish, using all the spice mixture.
- Warm tortillas and keep covered while you cook the fish.
- When grill is ready drizzle fish with oil then oil the grates of the grill. Cook fish until lightly charred and opaque, about 4 minutes per side.
- Serve immediately with warm tortillas and salsa.
