Peppers and onions grilled to sweetness are classic fajita veggies, and they jump in seamlessly to fish tacos. Take your time to get a little caramel color on the veggies for the best flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 (½" thick) slices white onion
- 1 (8 oz.) package mini sweet bell peppers
- Cooking spray
- ¾ tsp. salt, divided
- ½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper, divided
- 4 (5 oz.) tilapia fillets
- 8 (6") corn tortillas
-
1 small jalapeño pepper, thinly sliced
Optional Garnishes*:
- Lime wedges
Directions
- Preheat grill to high heat.
- Arrange onion slices and bell peppers on a grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill onions (12 minutes, turning after 6 minutes) and mini sweet bell peppers (12 minutes, turning occasionally).
- Remove onions and bell peppers from grill, and let stand (5 minutes). Slice onion rings in half. Thinly slice bell peppers; discard stems and seeds.
- Combine onion, mini sweet bell peppers, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl.
- Sprinkle fish evenly with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and remaining 3/8 teaspoon black pepper.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray.
- Add fish to pan, and cook until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness (3 minutes on each side).
- Warm tortillas according to package directions. Divide fish, onion mixture, and jalapeño slices evenly among tortillas. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
