Broiling fish filets for this dish makes it a healthier version of fish tacos than deep fried fish tacos.. The filets could certainly be substituted with deep fried, battered fish, but broiling fish is a lower fat and lower carb option. These tacos may be made with any fish you like, but I prefer tilapia or mahi mahi. The fish can be easily made on a sheet plan and will easily feed a crowd.
The zesty fish taco sauce is an amazing complement to the fish, bringing a creamy and citrus flavor to complement the spiciness of the fish seasoning.
