Thanks for stopping by my blog! I saw this post of yours and was reminded that we haven’t had fish tacos in a few weeks. We love them so much we sometime have them EVERY week! (I’m going to steal the lime cream idea!)
Awesome!! Enjoy:)

I’ve been looking for a good at home Fish Taco recipe and I think this could be the one.
Generally speaking, if you use the smallest soft tortilla size, two Fish Tacos is a perfect bandster portion. I’m sure that would also be true of these.
Thank you so much:) Enjoy!
Wow, sounds and looks wonderful! Can’t wait to try your recipe!
Thank you!! Enjoy:)
I can’t wait to make these… I just fell in love with fish tacos this year! I used to think they sounded gross π¦
I don’t eat meat, only fish, so this kind of recipe is just what I need! Thank you! β€
Enjoy and Happy Cooking:)
Sounds good. Think we will have to give it a try!
Enjoy:) Thank you:)

Great looking Tacos. Muy rico! Detailed recipe and easy to follow. Do you make your own tortillas?
I have but not in that picture:) Thank you:)
Me too. I am a fish taco gal!
π Enjoy!
I haven’t had good fish tacos in such a long time… these look perfect!
Thank you! Enjoy and happy cooking:)https://maggiesonebuttkitchen.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit-comments.php#comments-form
I love fish taco’s. A supper club where I used to work made them with Ahi Tuna and Swordfish.
That would be awesome. Any fish works with this recipe or any seafood I should say. Enjoy:)
Yup! You got me craving them- and the kids are happier with shrimp than fish. The other night I took inventory: shrimp, avocados, key limes all there. No cabbage- substituted by making a slaw with some (older but ok) bok choy, jicama, cilantro, sour cream, mayo, lime, chives, pepper, honey and a lot of sliced fresh jalapenos. My family had never tried shrimp tacos- I’d forgotten my roots! These were very yummy and will be done again. Thanks!
Yay!
Love fish tacos…it’s my favorite thing to prepare. Thanks for the great recipe.
You are so welcome Happy cooking and Enjoy:)
(-: food, food, and more food π
and imagine some people actually rather eat some protein powder.
i will definitely make the fish tacos one day soon!
Yay!! Enjoy and Happy Cooking:)

These look SO good!! Thx for the like on my recent post on The Nutrition Doctor is In the Kitchen! π Just a little fyi – ignore if you like!! – your blog is hard to read for me – perhaps because of the gorgeous photos it’s hard to scroll and such?? Anyway … thx for sharing this terrific recipe. Perhaps try whole wheat taco shells? #theydontsuck
You are so welcome:) The whole wheat shells are awesome. Sorry my blog is giving you difficulties. I’ll see what can be done:)
Mmmm. Definitely something to try!

Fantastic fish tacos by Maggie
Thank you very much. I so glad that you liked them:)
I’ve never been much for fish tacos, but have to say with fresh cilantro, crema, and chipotle, how can I go wrong? I’ll have to try your recipe.
Thanks for liking my page
You are very welcome. Looking forward to many more visits to your blog:)
These look like the fish tacos I had in San Diego, which were fabulous, from a tiny little place I just happened upon. When a local asked me how I knew to come there, I had to say it was just luck. They said I was at the best place in town. Thanks for the recipe and thanks for visiting my blog too.
You are so welcome. As a Californian born and raised these represent what I always had in a fish taco. Hope you enjoy the recipe:)

I absolutely love your blog, and thank you so much for posting this recipie…I love fish tacos!
Thank you very much:) Enjoy! I’m looking forward to many more visits to your blog. Lover of books:)
Oh, Maggie! Being a true fish taco snob, you’ve won me over with this recipe. I made it tonight with some variations, a different aioli sauce to accompany the fish, and grilled the fish on the BBQ. The entire creation rivaled the best I’ve found yet in Kailua-Kona, and believe me, I’ve sampled quite a few. I plan to write about these tomorrow morning when I have more steam, and I’ll send folks to your blog when I do. Thanks again. Cindy from Isle to Isle.
Thank you so much. I’m so glad that you liked the tacos:)
Maggie,
As promised, here’s a blog post and homage of sorts to your recipe on my blog. Hope you like it. http://isletoisle.wordpress.com/2012/07/10/the-best-fish-taco-in-kailua-kona/
Wow!! Thank you so much:)
