What do you want in your Taco?

Nope. 

Spicy grilled chicken, shredded lettuce, shredded carrots, dill pickle relish, diced tomatoes and lots of medium hot taco sauce

Hmmmm.....Chef Boyardee raviolis on tacos. Michael, I insist you try that and report back. I will even insist that you take credit for the creation!

Don't forget to sprinkle some Green Can Cheese on top!

So I decided to do fish tacos tonight. Of course, since today was National Margarita Day, I made margaritas for all of us.
I also made Mexican shrimp cocktails.

 
I started with some fresh cod. Marinated it with chipotle, cayenne, grapeseed oil, lemon and black pepper.

 
Grilled tortillas on the cast iron flattop.

 
 
Grilled the fish on the flattop.

 
Fresh chopped onions and cilantro.

 
Made the sauce with ranch dressing and Tapatio sauce.

 
Made some of the tacos with just the sauce, onions and cilantro.
 

 
Other people wanted hotter, so I made theirs with hot salsa.

 
They were yummy!

 
 

Ed-looks fantastic!

Those look good!!

Ed, I see your passion for food coming back like a herd of Buffalo stampeding through the plains. Your pictures and description make me want to run out and get some........I like the grilling of the fish, I think you a found a way to make Mexican food healthy..............Anthony's in Seattle cooks the fish on a char broiler, I like the grill mark look of the fish. They also make a Mango salsa that sounds good. ..............Great job buddy, I'm sure everyone loved it..................Bill

Ed,
Those are beautiful!!  Now I want a taco but I know I won't find those in Ohio!

Ed, those look fantastic!  I have Ling in the fridge and think we'll be having fish tacos tonight.

Beautiful tacos, Ed.
 
How many can you eat?
 
(Glad to see the separation of onion and cilantro)

So delicious looking!!

Thanks, Marlene. I kept it down to four tacos last night. The shrimp cocktails helped fill me up!

Thanks, Noodles. Ling cod sounds good! Show us some pictures. I am sure they will be delicious!

Thanks, Bill. I love mango salsa. I also like making scallop ceviche with mango chunks in it. Try it some time!

Ed,
Very, very nice.

Thank you, Michael. maybe I'll make them when you and Lisa come out to California to visit!

Ed,
Very, very nice.

If Lisa is ever able to get me kicking and screaming to California we'd love to take you up on the offer.

Sometimes I like a good old American Taco in a hard shell with 
hamburger, lettuce, beans and cheddar.
If I'm going to the Taqueria I like Chorizo, Al Pastor, Buche, and Carne Asada.
The best fish tacos I had were from a guy here who was originally from Mexico City and poached a whole filet in a wonderful sauce. Much different than the usual fried or grilled, though I love those too.

I'm not taking him kicking and screaming anywhere!  Ed, I'll fly to CA and eat my share and his share of your beautiful tacos!!!

Chorizo Burritos today with a Quesadilla..................

Why didn't you open them up so we could see them? Tease....

That's a whole lotta condiment cups!

You mean like this................
 

I think Lisa and I have a road trip on the horizon-without Michael and Bob!

Annie when do we leave??
After we have Ed's cod tacos we can meander on up to Alaska and sample the rockfish and halibut tacos made by Noodles on the Loose.  Now that's a roadtrip! 

Flank steak in a Mexican Marinade.........be back later..........for some tacos

Looks like a great start!

Ed,
Well, if you insist!  I suppose we could be persuaded......and since it's on the way to Alaska, a stop to see pnwchef for a flank steak taco too.
