Baja-Style Cauliflower Tacos

by AMERICA'S TEST KITCHEN

A true Baja California experience requires sunny, breezy patios and a plate of tacos. We aimed to re-create the feel of a Baja-style fish taco in our home kitchen, instead bringing veggies to the forefront. We thought that battered cauliflower bites, drizzled with a cool and creamy vegan sauce, were the perfect vegan stand-in for the fish. We wanted to avoid the mess of deep-frying, so we cut the cauliflower into large florets and roasted them. To boost their flavor, we dunked the pieces in canned coconut milk seasoned with garlic and spices and then rolled them in a mixture of panko bread crumbs and shredded coconut.

Couscous Tacos

by BeccaB3c Food

"From a vegetarian cookbook of mine. I love Couscous (KOOS-koos)- it is a quick-cooking grain made from ground semolina in the shape of very tiny beads, so it is a cool change from regular pasta! Also, I suppose you can use soft shell tacos shells, not just hard shell."

Bistec a la Yucateca Tacos (Yucatán Steak Tacos)

by Alex Henry 9/9/24 cooking

When Alex Henry reworked a classic dish from his childhood for his first restaurant, Sureste Mexican, a food hall spot in St. Louis, he also happened to engineer an exuberantly flavorful and smart steak taco for home cooks. Bistec a la Yucateca is a common main dish in the Yucátan peninsula often made with skirt or flank steak, but Mr. Henry uses its citrusy, earthy marinade on thinly sliced ribeye for tacos. 

How To Make Easy Ground Beef Tacos

by Ashley Moore 6/3/20 AMERICA'S TEST KITCHEN

I’ve been known to use a prefab packet of taco seasoning in a pinch, but there’s something disappointing about the resulting tacos. There are flavors I like but also a lingering dullness. I challenged myself to do better, to create a quick, weeknight-friendly ground beef taco filling using fresher ingredients but without creating more work.

Baja-Style Grilled Tempeh Tacos

"From the Veganomicon. I add lots of hot sauce to this (both in the lime creme and the tempeh marinade). It's very pretty with shredded purple cabbage, but you can substitute with lettuce if you'd prefer."

Whole Grilled Fish Tacos Recipe

by J. Kenji López-Alt 14/2/25 serious eats

When I'm making fish tacos, I'll take them crunchy and fried over grilled any day. Grilled fish tacos always just seemed like a sad, semi-health-conscious replacement to me. Like ordering a grilled chicken sandwich instead of a fried chicken sandwich or a light beer instead of a regular.

Fish Tacos

by Anna 3 Food

"This recipe is from Cuisine at Home. I made a few changes to suit our taste, but by far my families favorite. Prepare the tartar sauce and relish early. Prepare batter for dipping fish just before use."

Family-Meal Fish Tacos

by Chad Shaner 11/8/25 Cooking

This is a fast, satisfying fish dinner with Cajun flavors. Chad Shaner cooked it for staff meals when he was a line cook at Union Square Cafe in Manhattan. It was, he said shyly when The Times talked to him in 2013, one of the restaurant staff's favorites. “Everyone loves taco day,” he said. The recipe is not particularly Mexican. Shaner hails from Smyrna, Del., and served in the Navy before he went to cooking school.

Grilled Tilapia Tacos Recipe

by Joshua Bousel 9/8/18 serious eats

Ican't get over the guilt I have for ignoring an entire realm of grilling greatness in this column: seafood. Despite my ability to overcome most food aversions, seafood is one I just can't seem to shake, which leaves me feeling like I'm doing a huge disservice to all of you. My wife, on the other hand, enjoys the occasional sea creature, and she recently took the reigns of the grill to fill it with shrimp and these tilapia fish tacos, a start in rectifying my wrong.

Fish Tacos With Mango Avocado Salsa

by SarasotaCook Food

"What is so good about these are a fresh fruit salsa, avocado cream, grilled fish, and I love a light cabbage to bring it all together. Now, you can add tomato, or black olives which is one of my favorites and it is a very inexpensive easy dish. You can also add beans right to the dish which is also really good, or ... What is so nice, is make some of my black beans, just sauteed with garlic, lime, fresh peppers, cumin, onions makes an amazing quick side dish. If all that isn't enough, corn on the cob. Just throw some in the oven or on the grill.

Fish Tacos al Pastor

by Luis Herrera 11/10/23 Cooking

A chief contender for dinner party raving, these savory-sweet tacos de pescado al pastor, from the chef Luis Herrera of Ensenada restaurant in Brooklyn, are impressive parcels of celebration. Grilling the pineapple gets you close to the charred flavor of al pastor, “in the style of a shepherd,” without the traditional rotating vertical spit, a method of barbecuing lamb that Lebanese immigrants brought to Mexico in the late 19th century.
