Fish Tacos and I Love You Man

We began our evening with a trip to the local Publix. We already had some fish and fresh garlic, so we didn't need to buy any. On our shopping list was:

Charcoal

Red Chili peppers

Habanero Peppers

Flour tortillas

Cilantro

Limes

onion

sour cream

We began the evening with prepping our picco de gallo and our take on a Mexican style tar tar sauce.

For the Picco:

2 large tomatoes finely chopped and seeded

One large red onion finely chopped

two red chilis seeded and chopped

one habanero peeper chopped and seeded

Juice of 2 limes

1 cup of finely chopped fresh cilantro

(mix well together in a bowl)

For the tarter:

8oz of sour cream

2 tablespoons of ground ginger

2 red chilis finely chopped and seeded

1 habanero pepper finely chopped and seeded

Juice of one lime

2 cloves of finely chopped fresh garlic

1 cup of finely chopped fresh cilantro

(mix well together in a bowl)

For the fish:

If using charcoal, fire up the grill halfway between prepping your toppings. We recommend Kingsford charcoal, also, nothing beats a Weber grill.

Pile your briquettes to one side of the grill.

Coat your briquettes with lighter fluid liberally (seriously, less is not more in this case)

Let the fluid rest into the briquettes for a few minutes, 5 should do it, enough to smoke a cigarette or check your facebook.

Light that fire!

Once the coals are white hot, use your tongs or something else that is fireproof to spread the coals.

Now get your fish

If you are in a bromance like us, one of you can keep prepping while one grills, and take turns.

Now for the grilling:

We used a grill pan that was marketed to be used for grilling vegetables and seafood

Oil the pan well (you may also use alluminum foil to cook the fish on if you don't have a pan depending on the fish you will need a flat/semi flat surface to cook it on if its a real meaty fish you don't need foil or a pan)

Fill the pan with fish (we used a lot of fish cause we were hungry)

Season the fish to your liking with lime juice, garlic powder, salt and pepper.

Cook on this side for about 10 minutes

Flip and repeat the seasoning process.

Cook till flaky goodness and plate it up!

Put the I Love You Man dvd in and enjoy!
