Best Fish Tacos Ever
My dad is a carnivore. He is the grillmaster. The king of BBQ. Definitely a meat and potatoes type of guy. I think of Ron Swanson from Parks & Rec when I think of my dad!
Anyway, my parents came for dinner the other night and my dad asked that I make my delicious fish tacos and it blew me away. Really?! Fish tacos? So I upped my game, added a little bolder flavor and flair and whipped up these bad boys and sure enough he loved them!
So I had to share them with all of you. I added a cilantro lime slaw and fresh guacamole (something I’ve been making for nearly 20 years, and it was excellent. Pair with my Skinny Strawberry Jalapeño Margarita and enjoy!
