Summertime Fish Tacos

tailgate time

Choose tilapia fillets or any other firm white fish. Before these go in the oven they’ll get seasoned with chili powder, garlic powder and a bit of salt. While the fish are cooking, prep a taco bar for guests to choose which fresh ingredients they’d like to top their delicious tacos with!
