Mexican Fish Recipes

MEXICAN BAKED FISH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease one 8x12 inch baking dish.
• Rinse fish fillets under cold water, and pat dry with paper towels. Lay fillets side by side in the prepared baking dish. Pour the salsa over the top, and sprinkle evenly with the shredded cheese. Top with the crushed corn chips.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until fish is opaque and flakes with a fork. Serve topped with sliced avocado and sour cream.

SPICY MEXICAN FISH

Steps:

• In a dish, arrange fish in a single layer.
• Pour lime juice over fish.
• Let stand for 15 minutes.
• Combine the flour, taco seasoning, cumin and cayenne.
• Remove fillets from juice and pat dry with paper towels and discard lime juice.
• Coat fillets with flour mixture.
• In a large skillet, cook fillets, in batches, over medium-high heat in oil for 6-8 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

MEXICAN FISH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Coat fillets with flour seasoned with salt and pepper to taste.
• Heat butter in skillet and lightly sautee fillets in butter til done and flaky.
• Transfer fillets into individual casserole dishes or small oven proof bowls.
• Divide sauce and chilis among them evenly and then sprinkle cheese over each evenly.
• Bake for 15 minutes till cheese is nice and melted.
• Sprinkle with cilantro leaves.
• Note:Sometimes I put a layer of mexican rice (try recipe #117892) or orzo flavored with some cumin in the bottom of the bowl before assembling. A one dish meal and you have only one barely dirty skillet to clean!
• Note:Sometimes I make this just for myself. Fry fish-pour a little sauce-add a TBS of chilis- sprinkle some cheese. It's not brain surgery or rocket science. Save what's left in the cans for another use like adding to scrambled eggs. I hope you enjoy this dish as much as I have for many years.

MEXICAN FISH WRAPS

Steps:

• Sprinkle the lime zest over the pieces of fish, then season. Dip the fish into the egg whites, then coat with breadcrumbs and place on a baking sheet. Spray the fish with 2 squirts oil, then grill for 2 mins. Flip them over, spray with more oil, then grill for a further 2 mins until the fish is cooked and the breadcrumbs are golden and crispy.
• Squeeze the lime juice into the tzatziki and stir. Warm the tortillas according to pack instructions. To assemble the wraps, place a handful of cabbage or lettuce onto the top two-thirds of a tortilla, then rest 3 fish fingers on top with a good dollop of the lime tzatziki. Bring the bottom third of the tortilla up and fold the sides over to envelop the filling.
