I picked up some really nice red snapper on Monday at Central Market and planned to make fish tacos.
I rushed in the door from my weight training with Sandra Kidd and put the snapper on a piece of foil, sprayed with olive oil, made a quick spice rub and sprinkled it on the fish. While the fish was baking I made a "Baja sauce" in my small food processor I keep on the counter, ready to go. I had a bowl of lettuce in the crisper already washed and dried so I shredded it and washed a cut a few grape tomatoes.
When the fish was ready I heated a skillet and sprayed it with olive oil spray, warmed a few corn tortillas, then filled them with the fish, a little lettuce and sauce. A squeeze of lime and we were eating fantastic fish tacos within 30 minutes.
