Description
Love a good pun? We do, so just for the halibut, we tried this version of a fish taco without the messy, less-healthy step of frying the fish. This dish boasts a flakey, delicate fish with a smoky, charred finish. We’ve also arranged a beautiful marriage of flavors, bringing the essence of Asia and Latin America together in our fresh, crisp sesame slaw. Served on top of warmed corn tortillas, this dish is gluten-free, healthy, and completely craveable.

Directions
- Equipment: grill pan for fish (great for use during winter’s months or if you find yourself sans grill), mortar and pestle for rub (a tea towel and a hammer or rolling pin can pinch hit here), mandolin (optional), medium bowl for slaw, bench scraper (optional), microplane
- Start by throwing the grill pan on the heat.
- Gather your mortar and pestle and spices. Combine the smoked paprika, coriander seed, salt, in your mortar and grind-it-like-you-mean-it to make a rub. Grab your halibut (or proxy fish) and coat generously with the rub, covering every single surface of flesh. Now pour the soy oil over the fish and give it a good massage. Lay the fish in the grill pan, you should hear the intoxicating sizzle, resist the urge to move the fish during grilling (guys, talking to you here). Go wash your paprika-stained, Halloween hands.

I couldn’t find halibut or either of the substitute fish so I used tilapia. I don’t know if it was my fish or the smoked paprika or a combination of both but my kitchen literally smelled like a dog while cooking this and although I generously seasoned the fish it was pretty flavorless overall. The slaw was really the only redeeming part, I was really disappointed

Turned out great! I did a scirachia mayo and added sharp cheddar topping, also added refried beans for the kids and it all blended perfectly! That slaw is great..

It was excellent. Loved the flavors! Just think the slaw could have had one more ingredient.
