Pan Grilled Fish and Shrimp Tacos

Pin It Now!
We've been living here in Saudi for 3 months (hubby for 6) and we still don't have a grill.  There has to be something seriously wrong about that.  I mean, for my 23rd birthday my dad gave me money to go an buy my own grill!  Surprisingly we seem to be getting on just fine without one.  We'll pick one up soon I suppose, but in the meantime I purchased one of those cute little pans with the raised bits to make cute little grill marks.
We went to the local fish market on Friday and bought some more prawns and grouper.  Cooked some up that day at a park BBQ, but left the rest at home.  If I was lucky enough to find tortillas at the store (around here you never know what you'll find at the store on a day to day basis), I knew I wanted to make fish and shrimp tacos.
So, I was one very happy lady when I found some salsa flavored tortillas.  As much as I would have preferred corn, I was just happy to get tortillas at all.
I just loved this recipe...but the best part was the Mango-Radish Salsa.  (click the link for the recipe) Oh my was that good.  I will be making these tacos again very soon!!  (wish I still had some left over!)


Mango-Radish Salsa

Pin It Now!
This is the recipe for the salsa to go with my Pan Grilled Fish and Shrimp Tacos.  But, if you're like me...you may just find yourself eating this right out of the bowl.  I think it helped that I managed to pick out an extremely ripe mango that was super sweet.  But all the flavors mixed together just work.  Love the bit of kick from the chili powder.  
Try this with other fish dishes or even as a side dish by itself!  
Happy cooking!

Mango-Radish Salsa:
1 mango, diced
4 red radishes, diced small
1/4 cup red onion, diced
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, leaves chopped
1 lime, halved and juiced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a bowl.  Toss gently.  Add lime juice and toss again.  Season and refrigerate until ready to use.
