Make sure the fillets are no more than 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick so they cook quickly. Sometimes flipping fish on the grill can be tricky since the fish can stick to the grill or fall apart. The solution is to invest in a grill basket that easily holds 4 to 6 fish fillets and secures the fish in the basket for easy flipping. If you don’t have a grilling basket, make sure the grill is hot and well oiled before adding the fish. To prepare fish: Combine chilli spice, lime juice, oil, cumin, onion powder, garlic power, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Rub adobo rub all over fish. Let stand 20 to 30 minutes for the fish to absorb the flavor. To prepare coleslaw: Combine sour cream, mayonnaise, cilantro, lime zest, lime juice, sugar, salt and pepper in a medium bowl; mix until smooth and creamy. Add cabbage and toss to combine. Refrigerate until ready to use. Preheat grill to medium-high. Oil the grill rack or use a grilling basket. Grill the fish until it is cooked through and easily flakes with a fork, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a platter and separate into large chunks. Serve the tacos family-style by passing the fish, tortillas, coleslaw and taco garnishes separately. * Mahi-mahi (also called dorado) from the U.S. Atlantic and halibut from the Pacific are both sustainably fished and considered best choices for the environment.

Chilli spice mix made from these chiles has more flavor than American-style blends. Look for whole dried chilies in the produce section of large supermarkets and New Mexico or ancho chile powder in the specialty spice section of large supermarkets or online. Tips: To oil a grill rack, oil a folded paper towel, hold it with tongs and rub it over the rack. (Do not use cooking spray on a hot grill.) Two ways to warm corn tortillas: MICROWAVE: Wrap stacks of up to 12 tortillas in barely damp paper towels; microwave on High for 30 to 45 seconds. Wrap tortillas in a clean towel to keep warm. OVEN: Wrap stacks of 6 tortillas in foil; place in a 375ºF/190ºC oven for 10 to 15 minutes. Wrap tortillas in a clean towel to keep warm. If preparing ahead of time: Prepare coleslaw (Step 2) up to 4 hours ahead. Servings 6 Eating Well - 31 August 2011 MM Format by Dave Drum - 12 February 2013 Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
