Delicious Fish Tacos Recipe – Perfect For #TacoTuesday

Here is a fun take on Taco Tuesday – with the most delicious Wild Alaskan Pacific Cod from Sitka Salmon Shares.

Tuesdays in our home are officially Taco Tuesdays.   We love that there are so many fun ways to get creative when it comes to tacos.  The fish taco recipe below happens to be my favorite way to enjoy tacos, alongside a margarita and chips with salsa!

There are four parts to this recipe, and it may seem overwhelming but it is actually super easy.  Most of the ingredients (especially for the seasoning) may already be in your cabinet or pantry.

I’ve taken the liberty of created a free shopping list and recipe card printable for you – it’s at the end of the recipe!

ABOUT SITKA SALMON SHARES

Sitka Salmon Shares is different.  Different how, you may ask?

  • More than 90 percent of seafood consumed on the US is imported (NOAA Fisheries, 2014).  Sitka’s fish is wild-caught from the South Alaskan waters.
  • Sitka is owned by the fishermen.  It creates a more just system that values hard work, high-quality fish and low-impact harvesting methods.
  • Countless studies show that between 20 and 60 percent of U.S. fish is mislabeled (CNN).  Sitka’s relationships with their fishermen and transparent supply chain ensure that the fish is traceable to the source.

ABOUT THE MONTHLY SHARES

Each member receives a monthly share of the harvest – fish that’s in season and respects the limits of nature. 

The shares come in many shapes and sizes that come individually portioned, vacuum-sealed and blast-frozen to lock in that fresh-from-the-ocean taste. 

Every month during fishing season, you would get a box of wild-caught Alaskan seafood hand-delivered right to your door by one of their Sitka Salmon Stewards or Fed Ex.

If you enjoy fish, I recommend trying out Sitka’s service – aside from the fact that they are more responsible, transparent, ethical and higher quality than other similar shares – the fish is delicious!

🏹 When I was little I was shot in the face with a bow and arrow.
OK, so I wasn’t really shot in the face with a bow and arrow, but I wanted to see 1 – if you were really paying attention and 2 – to make my close friends and family laugh.  I did tell my parents that I was shot in the face in summer camp when I was little.  I started with drama at a very young age

#FridayFeels I am so glad it's Friday! This week #FridayFeels I am so glad it's Friday!  This week was a busy one - super productive with a 24ish hour trip to Arizona for work. 

I got to wake up to this gorgeous view of the mountains ⛰😍

This weekend I'm definitely taking  advantage of no scheduled games - sleeping late, massage, relaxing, going through the 9,000 magazines piling up on my coffee table...

What are your weekend plans?
