6 tacos
Ingredients:
For the Fish
▢ 2 snapper fillets, or other mild, white fish
▢ ½ lime
▢ 1 tablespoon olive oil
▢ ½ teaspoon salt
▢ 1 teaspoon chili powder
▢ ½ teaspoon cumin
For the Spicy Corn Salsa
▢ 1-2 ears corn on the cob
▢ 1 jalapeno
▢ ½ small red onion
▢ ½ lime
▢ handful cilantro
▢ salt
To Serve
▢ 6 tortillas, warmed over the fire
▢ Hot sauce, optional
▢ Kettle Chips
Directions:
- Start your campfire or grill – you’ll be cooking this meal over medium-high heat.
- Prep the fish by squeezing half a lime over the fillets, a drizzle of olive oil, and dusting both sides of the fish with the chili powder, cumin, and salt. Set aside.
- Once your fire is ready, place the corn and jalapeno on the grill. Grill for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender. Remove and set aside to cool slightly.
- Place the fish in a wire grill basket. Place on the grill and cook for about 3 minutes, then flip and cook 2 minutes more.
- Remove and let the fish rest for a minute or two.
- While the fish is cooking, make the salsa. Cut the corn off the cob, peel the blackened skin off the jalapeno and chop (remove stems & seeds for a milder spice), finely chop the onion, and mince the cilantro. Place everything in a bowl and squeeze in the juice from half a lime. Add salt to taste.
Build your tacos with the warmed tortillas, corn salsa, fish, and avocado. Serve with a side of Kettle chips and enjoy!
