I don’t know what it is about tacos, but they just seem to make everyone happy. Even though my husband isn’t a huge fan of Mexican food, he and my boys love seafood of all kinds. So we created these Baked Fish Tacos with Mango Salsa. Fish tacos are seriously so easy, and fish cooks so fast! You’ll make them once and return to the recipe over and over again.

Ingredients

• For the tacos: tilapia, Cajun seasoning, salt, canola oil, mango salsa, and tortillas.
• For the mango salsa: mango, cilantro, red onion, lime juice, jalapeño, and salt & pepper.

How to Make Baked Fish tacos with Mango Salsa

Start your fish tacos with mango salsa by mixing your Cajun seasoning with salt.

Then lay your fish out on a prepared baking sheet and sprinkle evenly with seasoning. Broil on high for about 6-8 minutes, or until flaky and golden brown.

While fish bakes, make your mango salsa. Start by mincing your cilantro, onion, and jalapeño, and dicing your mango.

Then in a large bowl, add the diced mango.

Add in the red onion, jalapeño, and cilantro.

Freshly squeeze in the lime juice.

Then season with salt and pepper and stir everything together.

To prepare your tortillas, on a hot skillet seasoned with oil, toast on each side for about 30 seconds.

Assemble your tacos by flaking your fish into bite-sized pieces, and evenly divide among the tortillas. Top with the fresh mango salsa.

Serve garnished with additional cilantro or jalapeño slices, and enjoy your Baked Fish Tacos with Mango Salsa!

Easy Substitutions

• Switch the fish. The Cajun seasoning and salsa would taste great with salmon, shrimp, or even swordfish.
• Take out the spice. If you or your family can’t do spice, make the mango salsa without the jalapeño.
• Add some toppings: Up the flavor by adding some sliced avocado or bell pepper on top, or by throwing diced pineapple into the salsa.
