serves/makes:

ready in:
1-2 hrs

ingredients

1 pound firm fleshed fish, cooked however you like (preferably grilled)
1/2 small head red cabbage finely shredded
1 bunch fresh cilantro
2 jalapeno peppers
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 1/2 cup ranch salad dressing
2 limes
12 flour tortillas

directions

Sauce: Put the jalapenos in a double thickness of tin foil and cover with olive oil and garlic. Roast on the grill (or in the oven) for about 15 minutes till cooked. Remove the seeds and membrane from the peppers and mince.

In a small bowl put the dressing, peppers w/oil and garlic, and the juice of the 2 limes. Let set for the flavors to blend.

To build the tacos: Take one flour tortilla and put some fish down the middle. Top with the shredded cabbage and a "healthy" amount of fresh cilantro. Smother with the "taco" sauce, fold in half and enjoy!
