I made some nice fish tacos last night. There are one of those dishes that didn't exist outside of the Pacific coastal Mexico 15 years ago or so. My friend from Mexico City still laughs and says that they aren't really Mexican food! I prefer them to traditional meat ones because those can be real calorie bombs with all the meat and cheese.

Cod has been well priced so I got 2 or 3 fillets and sliced them into smaller strips. Floured them and dipped them in a beer batter (used Dos Equis) and then in hot oil. I actually prefer to grill the fish on my charcoal grill but my wife prefers the fried ones. Served them in warm corn tortillas with finely chipped Napa cabbage. I made the traditional creamy sauce but used no fat Greek yogurt with lofat mayo and some nice spices and lime juice.
