Celebrate National Fish Taco Day with the Perfect Fish Tacos!
January 25th is National Fish Taco Day! This is a day to celebrate one of the most delicious meals out there: fish tacos. Whether you’re a novice or a pro in the kitchen, fish tacos can be an easy, healthy, and tasty meal for any day of the week. So why not make this special occasion even more special by preparing some perfect fish tacos? Here’s how!
Start with the Best Fish Possible
The best way to get started in making great fish tacos is to start with high-quality ingredients. Fresh fish makes all the difference when it comes to flavor, so if you have access to freshly caught fish, that should be your top choice. If you don’t have access to fresh-caught fish, never fear – frozen and canned varieties can still make for delicious tacos.
Choose Your Cooking Method
Once you’ve got your ingredients squared away, it’s time to choose how you’ll cook them. Baking is one of the best ways to prepare your fish as it ensures even cooking without needing much oil or other fats. If baking isn’t an option, then pan-frying or grilling will both work just fine too. Also, don’t forget about adding seasoning! You can find pre-mixed taco spices at any grocery store but feel free to go rogue and create your own blend of seasonings if you prefer.
Assemble Your Tacos
Now comes the fun part: assembling your tacos! Start off by warming your tortillas over an open flame or in a pan until they’re lightly browned and pliable (this helps bring out their flavor). Then flake your cooked fish into large chunks and place onto one side of each tortilla before adding toppings like salsa, cheese, lettuce, cilantro and lime wedges for extra zing. Once everything is ready and assembled give your tacos a final squirt of lime juice before serving up these delicious treats!
National Fish Taco Day only comes around once a year so why not make this celebration extra special by preparing some fantastic seafood tacos? With high quality ingredients and a few simple steps anyone can make some mouthwatering Mexican-style treats that are sure to please any crowd. So grab those ingredients and get cooking – these tacos won’t eat themselves! Happy National Fish Taco Day everyone! 🙂
