Fish Taco Sauce


Here is a great recipe for the white sauce that goes on fish tacos. If you have never made fish tacos don't be timid about it they are very easy to make. I prefer using Halibut or Mahi Mahi. All you need to do is grill the fish or bake it in the oven. When the fish is done chunk it up into bite size pieces. I use flour tortillas and fill them with the fish. On top of the fish pour a little of the white sauce on. Then for a little more texture put a little bit of cabbage and carrot slices. To do this you can either buy the pre made mixture which is green and purple cabbage and carrots sliced super thin. You can obviously make this your self and use the left overs to make cole slaw. I will post a recipe for cole slaw later. Now onto the white sauce. Enjoy!!! Oh and one last note...VERY important... DON'T get the jalapeño in your eyes. I have made this mistake and its a fiery burn you will not want to experience! Wear gloves if you can when handling the jalapeño.

1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 lime, juiced
1 jalapeno pepper, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

To make white sauce: In a medium bowl, mix together yogurt and mayonnaise. Gradually stir in fresh lime juice until consistency is slightly runny. Season with jalapeno, oregano, cumin, dill, and cayenne.
