Blake Hill Mango Habanero Chili Jam
1 pound white fish
olive oil
corn tortillas (or flour, if preferred)
kosher salt & fresh pepper, to taste
2 cups shredded cabbage
½ red onion, thinly sliced
½ bell pepper, thinly sliced
cilantro to garnish
Instructions
1
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
2
While you wait for the grill to heat, make the slaw. Place cabbage, red onion, and bell pepper in a medium bowl and add salt, two spoonfuls of chili jam, and toss well.
3
Add a generous amount of olive oil, salt, and pepper to the fish. Turn grill heat to medium.
4
Grill each side of the fish, letting grill marks develop, and use a metal spatula to flip. Add a spoonful of chili jam to each side after you flip.
5
Grill for 3-4 minutes on each side, depending on the fish’s thickness. Fish is done when opaque and flaky and is 140°F in the center. Fish can also be prepared in the oven or in a skillet.
6
Quickly heat tortillas on the grill or in the oven on top of a rack. Please note: Flour tortillas will char faster than corn.
7
Assemble tacos by placing slaw on warm tortillas, top with grilled fish, drizzle with Mango Habanero jam, garnish with cilantro, and Enjoy!
