DAY 2
Fish Tacos w/ Avocados
courtesy of RJ Krohn of RJD2 2 tablespoons olive oil
2 fillets of white fish, such as tilapia (about 1 pound total)
salt and pepper
6 taco shells
1 avocado
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
packet of taco seasoning
grated taco cheese
lettuce
salsa
tortilla chips
1. olive oil in a skillet. when hot, throw two fillets of white fish, tilapia preferably, in the pan. salt and pepper 'em. after about two or three minutes, flip the fillets and cook the other side for another two minutes and take off the heat.
2. put taco shells on a cookie sheet and into an oven set to 250° F or so, and keep checking on them to avoid burnt shells.
3. take an avocado - cut in half, peel/de-seed, and scoop innards into a small bowl. listen, cuz you gotta get this right. a dash of salt, a good dash of pepper, but a TINY amount of lemon juice. a teaspoon. easy to f*** up with too much lemon juice. mash together, perfect guacamole.
4. when fish is done, add taco seasoning from packet. chop it all up so it looks like puke.
5. heat shells in oven 5 min, take out, put cheese in, heat again for 3 min.
6. chop up some lettuce real fine and put some salsa in a bowl.
7. shovel the fish into the shells, top with lettuce, and serve with guacamole and chips. voilá!
