Fish Fajitas With Tomatillo Guacamole
- add review
- #53745
The fish in this recipe is poached in beer instead of frying, so it is lower in calories and stays flaky-tender. The tomatillo guacamole gets a little kick from the serrano pepper but otherwise has a mild flavor that makes it a perfect topping for the fish.

ingredients
Tomatillo Guacamole
1 medium avocado, pitted, peeled, and cubed
1 can (11 ounce size) tomatillos, drained
1 cup chopped onion
2 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoon seeded and chopped serrano chile
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Fish Fajitas
12 flour tortillas (6-inch size)
1 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/2 cup green bell pepper strips
3/4 cup thinly sliced onion
1 1/2 pound grouper fish fillets, cut into 1/2-inch sticks
1/3 cup beer
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 cup salsa
6 tablespoons nonfat sour cream
directions
Prepare the guacamole by combining the avocado and tomatillos in a food processor and process until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Stir in the onion, cilantro, lime juice, serrano chile, salt, and pepper. Mix well. Cover the bowl tightly and chill for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Wrap the tortillas in foil and place in the oven. Bake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell pepper, onion, and fish and cook, stirring gently, for 3 minutes.
Add the beer and cook for 5 minutes or until the liquid has evaporated and the fish is done. The fish should flake easily when tested with a fork. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the salt and pepper.
Divide the fish mixture between the heated tortillas. Serve with the guacamole, salsa, and sour cream (and any other additional toppings as desired).

We chopped the tomatillos and avocado instead of processing until smooth. You can use other fish in this such as cod, snapper, or orange roughy. The instructions don't mention what to do with the salsa, sour cream and guacamole but we have to assume that you dress the fajitas as usual with the condiments (that's what we did anyway!).
