Fish tacos are one of my go-to weeknight dinners - it can be ready in under 20 minutes, and they taste so fresh and delicious even though they take almost no time to make. I like to use halibut for these when I can find it, but any mild, flaky white fish will work just as well (rock fish, snapper, cod, flounder, etc).
The slaw in this recipe is so delicious in the taco - the cabbage gives it a little extra crunch, and it balances out the sweet and citrus flavors from the orange. A little cotija cheese or Mexican crema would be a delicious addition to these tacos, but not necessary.
The best part about this dinner is you'll roast the fish in the oven on a parchment lined baking sheet, making the clean up incredibly easy (no oil splatter or fish smell from trying to pan fry fish on the stove). And the 10-15 minutes the fish is in the oven (depending on how thick your halibut is) is the perfect amount of time to toss together the fresh citrus slaw and warm up your favorite tortillas of choice.
This meal is gluten free (if you use GF tortillas) and dairy free. Enjoy!
