Grilled Paiche Tacos with Pickled Veggies

Paiche (pronounced PIE-chay) is a deliciously thick and meaty though lean fish. This recipe calls for no added oil, so be sure to cook the fish in a grilling basket or on foil so it doesn’t stick to the grill grates.

Method

In a large bowl, combine cabbage, bell pepper, radishes, jalapeño, vinegar and a pinch of the salt, and toss to combine.

Prepare a grill for medium-high heat cooking. 


Sprinkle paiche with chili powder and remaining salt, and place in a grilling basket or on a double layer of aluminum foil. 


Grill, turning the basket once (or flipping fish with a spatula if using foil), until fish is just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. 


Transfer fish to a plate and break into chunks, using a fork. 


Place tortillas on the grill and grill until warm and lightly browned, about 30 seconds per side. 


Fill tortillas with fish and pickled vegetables.
