Peachy Fish Tacos Recipe

I love fish tacos! I made these tacos recently for my family, and they were devoured- even the slaw! (My kiddos ate cabbage, AND they put it on their tacos!!! I'm so proud of them.) The crunch of the slaw (seasoned with Cherchies® Chardonnay Lime & Cilantro), the savory fish (seasoned with Cherchies® Select Grilling Rub & Seasoning Blend), Cherchies® Vidalia Onion & Peach Salsa, and the special sauce was a flavor party in our mouths.  

"Mom, these are so good!" Music to my ears;)

For your next taco night, whip up a batch of these flavorful fish tacos for your gang, but grab some for yourself because they will disappear before your eyes. Serve these tacos with our Chardonnay Lime & Cilantro Rice and Cherry Applesauce for a complete meal.

Ingredients

Preparation 

This step is optional, but I think it added a nice smokiness to the tacos.  Toast the corn tortillas on both sides over a low flame.  I tried toasting the tortillas in a cast iron pan for a few minutes, and although good, I preferred the tortillas over the flame.  You decide.  After the tortillas have toasted, place them in a tortilla warmer or cover them with a paper towel until ready to use.

Next, prepare the slaw.  In a medium bowl, add the slaw mixture, the lime juice, the chopped cilantro, and Cherchies® Chardonnay Lime and Cilantro Seasoning.  Set aside.

Now for the "special sauce".  Combine mayonnaise and our Select Grilling Rub & Seasoning Blend.  I had this cute decorator bottle I purchased a while ago, but you can get the same effect by putting the special sauce into a plastic bag and snipping off the corner.  Either way, the sauce will finish off the tacos at the end.

Add oil to griddle or pan (I have a griddle attachment that fits over my burners) and turn to medium heat. While griddle is heating up, season both sides of fish with a generous amount of Cherchies® Select Grilling Rub & Seasoning.   Cook fish a few minutes on each side, or until done (use a fork to check doneness by checking to see if fish flakes).

Now assemble to tacos.  After fish is finished cooking, flake the fish into chunks with a fork and place on tortillas.  Next add a generous amount of the slaw.  

Then add the peach salsa, and finally the special sauce.  There you go folks, fish tacos:) Ole!

Pulled Pork Bowl Recipe

Pulle Pork Bowl Recipe

Pulle Pork Bowl Recipe

One of my son's favorite foods is pulled pork sandwiches (he must have gotten that from me).  After a day of slow cooking the pork and smelling the wonderful aromas all day, it was almost time for dinner...until I realized at the eleventh hour that I didn't have rolls to make the sandwiches.  Yikes!  Think mom, now what? Mashed potatoes! 

I quickly peeled a few potatoes and plopped them into boiling water, and in a short few minutes (you get the gist), I had mashed potatoes and a comforting pulled pork bowl!  This recipe is so easy...you throw the ingredients in a slow cooker and walk away!
