Discover the perfect combination of flavors with our recipe for Chili-Hollandaise and Grilled Fish Tacos with Lime. This dish offers a delightful balance of spicy, creamy, and tangy elements, making it ideal for a summer cookout or a quick weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

  • 4 fillets of white fish (such as cod or tilapia)
  • 8 small corn or flour tortillas
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
  • Optional: sliced jalapeños and shredded cabbage

Preparation

Start by preparing the Chili-Hollandaise sauce. In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, chili powder, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, and lime juice. Stir well until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Set aside.

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the fish fillets with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lime juice. Grill the fish for about 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through and slightly charred.

While the fish is grilling, warm the tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds per side. This enhances their flavor and makes them more pliable.

Assemble the tacos by placing a piece of grilled fish on each tortilla. Top with a generous spoonful of Chili-Hollandaise, then add sliced jalapeños, shredded cabbage, and a squeeze of lime for extra flavor. Garnish with fresh cilantro.

Serving Suggestions

Serve these flavorful fish tacos immediately with extra lime wedges on the side. They pair well with a light salad or a chilled beverage like a cold beer or a citrusy soda. For a healthier option, add more fresh vegetables or use whole wheat tortillas.
