Blackened Mahi Mahi Tacos
The other day we went to Dukes for lunch. Isaac and I each got fish tacos, though we got different kinds. They were unbelievably yummy. Inspired me to make my own. I didn’t work from a single recipe, but gathered bits and pieces from a couple. Essentially what we have here is mahi mahi coated in a 8-spice rub (comprised largely of paprika), blackened in my cast iron skillet. Two corn tortillas were topped with slaw, the fish, cilantro/lime laced sour cream, cucumber/avocado pico de gallo and feta cheese. So far I’d say this was an acid reflux friendly (or is that unfriendly?) meal.
Topped off dinner with blackberry pie and fat-free whipped cream. I’m full, but not in pain. Success!
Behr has me though. They’ve got primer/paint combos so I can eliminate the pesky task of first priming the walls. Yea! I’m going to go from buttercream and brown/green (looks better than it sounds - Behr calls it “Elk” I think) to pear and grape green. All you have to do is look at my photos to see the current wall colors. Them’s the new colors over there to the right. The red is my accent color, my favorite color. The brown is the closest approximation to the current color of my cabinets, though they are darker. Some day we’ll redo the cabinets. I just know it!
