I am highly prepared this summer to make Grilled Fish Tacos whenever I want with my collection of outdoor cooking equipment.
I have my smoker, charcoal grill, and my new George Foreman Indoor Outdoor Grill for my daughter.
Yes, even baby girl get’s a grill!
This is a really simple Grilled Fish Taco dish. I took whitefish fillets and marinated them for about 15 minutes in citrus juices, spices, and a little olive oil.
Grill the fish for about 6-7 minutes per side.
While the fish was marinating, I made a Sriracha sour cream sauce by mixing sour cream with sriracha hot sauce.
This sauce is surprisingly not spicy, the sour cream cools off the sriracha.
I served the tacos with shredded cabbage, lots of cheese and a squeeze of lime juice.
Big Goo decided that I needed more lemon juice, so I squeezed extra lemon on top as well.
I will admit he was correct, the extra lemon kicked the tacos up!
Everyone in my house is a food critic, I am used to it, it’s my fault for always asking their opinion.
All done and ready to chow down!
Enjoy!

wow-these look great!
Thanks Anne, they’re so tasty and simple to make!
I only see smoked whitefish at my grocery store. Did you use raw? Is there another fish that would work with this?
SMC, a nice cod or mahi mahi would work. I use Alaskan Salmon, pretty much any fish I like I use. If it’s too thin use foil to stop it from falling though the grates on the grill.
I just showed my teenage son the pictures. I 2 as promptly told “Don’t show pictures unless you’re gonna cook it! Uuuugghhh!” (I’d just shown him pic’s of the baked wings and caramel cake so he’s getting hungry.) Usually he just tunes me and my cooking obsession out. LOL He’s soooo wanting me to make these tacos.
LOL Tee, my daughter does the same thing.
