If you like reading my blog about food, and feel good about what you eat and how you look…then become very CLOSE to your new Personal Shopper, Kim Main Brooks. This woman has the lock and key to the fashion world and good taste. Reading her blog on FaceBook has cost me some serious dough (too MANY good ideas and finds), but it is so much fun, I just can’t quit!
I met Kim in Maui and she is full of fun, fabulous info! While in Maui she kept talking about how they just had Fish Tacos, were making Fish Taco’s again, wanted another Fish Taco. What the heck, I need in on this action! So Kim sent me her Famous (I am adding that part) Hawaiian Fish Taco Recipe and IT WILL NOT DISAPPOINT!
For those of you who claim you don’t cook, this is exactly the kind of recipe you need. Have fun with it, add what you feel like adding, crack open a Corona Light, add a lime, hit Jimmy Buffet on the Ipod…say Pink Pagoda out loud a few times because it makes you smile, and is fun to say.
My Girl Kim’s Famous Hawaiian Fish Taco’s
(Because it is 5 O’Clock somewhere!)
First MAKE YOUR BONE DUST
- In a large bowl, whisk together all the ingredients. Transfer the seasoning mixture to a container, seal tightly and store in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.
Second PREP THE FISH
Fresh Mahi Mahi is the way to go. Backup fish= Cod or Tilapia.
- Grill fish on the BBQ ( it took 15 mins. on lower heat). Use warm fresh tortilla’s and load them up with the fish, chopped avocado, chopped cabbage, sour cream and freshly made salsa. Hot sauce on the side for the heat seekers.
Third MAKE YOUR SALSA
- Buy the cabbage chopped in a bag at Trader Joe’s
- Try Fat Free Greek Yogurt for a zip instead of sour cream
- Mango Salsa at Costco is YUMMY if you are rushed
- A can of pineapple is always a good addition if you are finding mangos are not in season or not at the store you go to
- Costco carries frozen Tilapia and Mahi Mahi
NOTICE there is no CHEESE! Try it this way before tossing it on, you really DO NOT NEED IT!
And for all of you that are like me, and your body thinks a simple carb is an automatic pound-per-bite, try tossing it all over a bed of lettuce, or shredding the lettuce and add it to the cabbage, salsa and place the fish on top!
