Cod Tacos With Strawberry Salsa Recipe For Candida
Ingredients
- 1 cup hulled strawberries, diced
- 1 yellow/orange bell pepper, diced
- 1 jalapeno/serrano pepper, seeded and sliced
- 1/2 small red onion, chopped
- 1/3 cup basil/mint, chopped
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1 cup water
- 1 tsp orange zest
- 1 orange, juiced
- 3 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
- 1 inch ginger, peeled and sliced
- 1 1/4 Lb Pacific Cod
- 1/4 tsp salt, plus a couple of pinches
- 1/4 tsp black pepper,
- 1/4 tsp cayenne
- 8 corn tortillas, warmed
- 1/2 cup sour cream
Instructions
- In a large bowl, toss together strawberries, bell peppers, chili peppers, red onions, basil/mint, lemon juice and couple of pinches salt. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes. To a medium-size pan or pot, add water, orange zest, orange juice, garlic and ginger. Line a steamer tray with parchment paper. Arrange fish fillets on tray and season with salt, pepper and cayenne. Set tray in pan/pot, making sure it rests above the liquid, then cover tightly.
- Bring liquid to a boil and steam until cod is just barely cooked through in the center, about 7 minutes. (Alternately, steam fish in an electric steamer.) Transfer steamed fish to a cutting board and allow to cool, then gently break flesh apart into 1-inch pieces. To serve, place cod on tortillas and top with strawberry salsa and dollops of sour cream.
