Do you love ordering fish tacos when you go out to eat? Well, now you can make them at home for Taco Tuesday! Katie Lee Biegel shared a super-easy fish taco recipe that takes the mystery out of cooking fish at home. And because the main event takes place on a single sheet pan, you can have dinner ready in less than 30 minutes.
“If you’re intimidated by cooking fish at home, or just want an easy, no-fuss, tasty dinner, this recipe is for you,” Biegel wrote in a recent Instagram caption. “My freezer is always stocked with @fultonfishmarket seafood (I’m their culinary curator!) so I used halibut for this recipe, but cod would also work great, or even salmon … Enjoy!”

You’ll first want to get your fish seasoned and in the oven. Biegel uses chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, as well as olive oil and a few sliced jalepeños to flavor her fish. Toss the fish in the oven, and while that’s cooking, make your sauce.
The sauce is a mixture of mayonnaise, chiles in adobo, pomegranate molasses or honey, cilantro, and lime, all diced up in the food processor. It only takes a few minutes to make, and it’s so delicious.
When the fish is opaque after about 12 minutes, take it out of the oven and flake it using a spoon, and now you’re ready to eat! Biegel likes to make her tacos with warm tortillas and toppings like pico de gallo, cabbage, sauce, and a squeeze of lime.
“Fish tacos are my favorite! I can’t wait to make these!” one person commented on Biegel’s post. Another said, “Love how pantry-friendly your recipes/dishes always are. I could make this right now with what I have on hand for the most part, with a tweak (no fresh cabbage, but I think a bit of kimchi could work).”
Top your fish tacos with whatever you have on hand, and you’ll have a delicious, fresh, and easy dinner in just under half an hour. Grab the full recipe here and prepare to have the best Taco Tuesday ever!
