🔥 Step-by-Step: How to Make Pacific Cod Tacos
Step 1: Bake the Cod
1️⃣ Preheat your oven to 375°F.
2️⃣ In a small bowl, mix chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and salt.
3️⃣ Brush the cod with olive oil, then rub the spice mix all over it.
4️⃣ Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily.
🔥 Pro Tip: Want extra smoky flavor? Grill the cod instead of baking it!
Step 2: Make the Mango Salsa
While the cod is baking, let's make that sweet & spicy mango salsa!
1️⃣ In a bowl, combine:
✔️ Diced mango
✔️ Red onion
✔️ Jalapeño
✔️ Cilantro
✔️ Lime juice
✔️ Salt & pepper
2️⃣ Stir it all together and let it sit—the flavors get even better after a few minutes!
🔥 Not into spice? Skip the jalapeño or swap it for bell pepper.
Step 3: Warm the Tortillas
For soft, pliable tortillas, warm them up:
🔥 Stovetop Method: Heat tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds per side.
🔥 Oven Method: Wrap tortillas in foil and warm at 350°F for 5 minutes.
💡 Pro Tip: Lightly charring tortillas over an open flame gives them a smoky kick!
Step 4: Assemble the Tacos
Now for the fun part—building your tacos!
1️⃣ Flake the cooked cod into chunks.
2️⃣ Add shredded cabbage to each tortilla.
3️⃣ Pile on the flaky, seasoned cod.
4️⃣ Spoon over that fresh mango salsa.
5️⃣ Finish with a squeeze of fresh lime.
Boom! Perfect tacos are ready to go.
