FAQs
When picking a fish for a dish like tacos, you’ll want a firm, white fish that is easy to cut into cubes and won’t fall apart when cooked.
I personally love tilapia fish tacos, so that’s what I use in this recipe. Tilapia is really affordable and you can find it anywhere. I love the mild flavor of tilapia recipes, and how quickly it cooks! You can also use mahi mahi, cod, barramundi, snapper, or haddock.
I love serving rice with fish tacos. Try my Portuguese Rice or Instant Pot White Rice. A simple salad would also go well with fish tacos, like Orange and Fennel Salad or a Cold Quinoa Salad.
Fish Taco Toppings
The only fish taco topping you’ll need for this recipe is my peach salsa! My peach salsa for fish tacos is simply a combination of fresh peach, jalapeno, cilantro, avocado, red onion and lime juice.
The key to making a really tasty salsa is to dice the ingredients really finely, especially the red onion. Red onion can be really overpowering in large chunks, which is why I like to get it as fine as possible. I do, however, like to make the peach chunks a little bigger.
For another variety, try my recipe for peach salsa with mangoes. It makes the best fish tacos sauce!

📋 Recipe
Fish Tacos with Peach Salsa
Ingredients
Fish Tacos
- ½ pound tilapia or other firm, white fish
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- 1 Tablespoon lime juice
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 6 corn tortillas
Peach Salsa
- 1 yellow peach diced
- ¼ medium red onion very finely diced
- ¼ cup cilantro finely diced
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- ½ jalapeno seeds removed, finely diced
- ½ avocado finely diced
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
Instructions
- Combine chili powder, garlic powder and salt and pepper in a small bowl. Pour the lime juice over the tilapia and coat with the chili powder rub. Set aside to marinate while you make the peach salsa.
- To make peach salsa, combine all the salsa ingredients in a small bowl. Taste and adjust lime, salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat, and add a dash of olive oil. Cook the tilapia for 3-5 minutes, turning occasionally until fish is cooked through. The fish should be white throughout, rather than opaque.
- While the fish is cooking, heat your tortillas. Heat a large cast iron pan over medium to high heat, and cook each tortilla one at a time for 2-4 minutes on each side, until they are lightly charcoaled. To assemble, take a tortilla, add the fish, then top with the peach salsa.
