Method
Step 1: Prepare the Haddock
- Start by rinsing the haddock fillets under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels. Place them on a cutting board. Brush both sides with olive oil. Sprinkle salt, smoked paprika, and cumin evenly over each fillet. Make sure every bit is seasoned to perfection.
Step 2: Cook the Haddock
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the seasoned haddock fillets. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove and set aside.
Step 3: Make the Mango Salsa
- In a mixing bowl, combine the diced Roma tomato, diced mango, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, minced jalapeño, sea salt, and grated ginger. Toss gently to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. This salsa brings a sweetness that balances the spices from the fish.
Step 4: Prepare the Chipotle Sour Cream
- In another bowl, mix the sour cream, lime juice, honey, chopped chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, and Himalayan pink salt. Stir until smooth. This sauce adds creaminess and a smoky kick to your tacos.
Step 5: Assemble the Tacos
- Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a flame until slightly charred. Lay the tortillas flat on a plate. Flake the cooked haddock and place it on each tortilla. Top generously with mango salsa and a dollop of chipotle sour cream.
Step 6: Serve
- Your haddock tacos are ready to be enjoyed! Dive right in while everything is fresh and warm.
Notes
- Freshness Matters: Always use fresh haddock for the best flavor. Frozen can work, but fresh is ideal.
- Don't Overcook: Fish can go from perfect to tough in seconds. Watch it closely.
- Customize the Heat: Adjust the jalapeño in the salsa to control the spice levels.
- Chill the Salsa: Let the mango salsa sit for a few minutes before serving for better flavor fusion.
- Use Different Tortillas: Flour tortillas are wonderful, but corn tortillas can provide a gluten-free option with great flavor.
