Fish tacos

The white fish isn’t grilled or breaded and fried, it’s marinated in a cilantro and jalapeno sauce with cumin and chipotle. The white fish is so flaky and the pico de gallo makes it so heavenly that you don’t miss the fried version at all. The cilantro sauce is also used in the pico de gallo mixture and the flavours are so tantalizing!
