Cumin-Spiced Fish Tacos with Avocado-Mango Salsa

This is my favorite recipe for fish tacos. I followed the recipe exactly and they came out amazing. I also loved the mango salsa. These have heat but cool down with the yummy mango. My husband didn't think he liked fish until he had these. 

I didn't mess with the cumin seeds, I just sprinkled ground cumin with the other seasoning on the fish before cooking.  These were really good - a bit messy because of the liquids.  Whole wheat tortillas might work better.  But I'd definitely make these again.

These were delicious! Even my two-year-old ate them, sans salsa because it was spicy. Highly recommend.

This gets 5 stars because I actually got my ten year old to eat a fish taco. At Mexican places, he is the king of beans and cheese, but now maybe I can persuade him to try some new things. I did modify this - cod was cheaper the day I made this, so I used that. Also, I didn't go all out on the salsa to keep it kid friendly. Their version was just avocado, mango, cilantro, lime juice, salt and a little ground chili (I put chopped jalapeno in the grown up version but skipped the green and red onions as I got tired of chopping stuff). He picked out the avocado, but was delighted with the mango/fish combination. I should mention he tried this on a day in which his lunch was forgotten at home and he didn't like the hot lunch at school. Hunger is the best sauce? My husband and I were very pleased. I will be serving this again! The side dish was Jalapeno Lime Slaw, also on this site. My husband ate about 8 cups of cabbage - look out!

These are amazing! Easy to make and delicious! The salsa is so good I have to double the recipe since my kids will just eat that by the spoonful. It is a great combination of flavors.

This dish is OUTSTANDING! We have served it many times to our family and friends. It's quick and easy...as well as delicious! When is says "break up the fish", once it's cooked, we break it into ground beef sized pieces and find that not only does the filling go further, but also it's a lot easier to eat. Highly recommended!

These were yummy, yum yum. This recipe will definitely go in my taco rotation. My daughter informed me the night before that she "does not like mango," but gobbled these right up, mango and all!

Made them exactly as written, although used flour tortillas. Loved the mix of flavors and will definitely make again!

I substituted fresh trout for the tilapia. They were really delicious. Although they didn't take me 23 minutes to prepare - it was more like an hour. But, well worth the effort, including toasting the cumin seeds.

These really turned out to be some of the best fish tacos we've ever had. The citrus flavors of the salsa complement the fish extremely well.

We liked these fairly well, but then we tried them again substituting CL's "Bayou Catfish Fillets" for the fish & seasoning here (although we did still use tilapia) - and the results were AMAZING! We almost always end up subbing the Bayou Catfish (or tilapia) in all of our fish taco recipes, actually. It's just so good! The avocado-mango salsa above is superb and truly makes this dish.

These are very easy and quick to eat and taste fantastic. My husband loved them and he is a pretty picky eater. Thanks for the quick and easy recipe.

We made this with large shrimp instead of talapia, topped it with the salsa & shredded lettuce. YUM, outstandingly good.

Extremely easy to prepare, , in advance, too. Great flavor. Will make it again, for sure.

Superfast, supereasy, great weeknight supper. Served with slaw& black beans.

let the fish stand overnight with the rub on. also chopped up way more garlic. deglazed the pan with white wine after grilling, used the sauce on the tacos (double-lined with two corn tortillas to absorb moisture). delicious.

very tasty and easy.

I loved this recipe. tried it last night and it was great! I'd add some more garlic than it calls for and I also added some more jalapeno to the sauce. As a side, I had no-mayo coleslaw - and a glass of rose wine. great pairing!

Awesome. Just awesome. Fresh and very tasty! The flavors blended really well and just the right amount of spice.

Very, very good. This will be in my regular rotation. I added a bit more mango and avocado than called for and rather than corn tortillas, I used flour tortillas and made burritos.
