Paco’s Fish Tacos in Lettuce Wraps Recipe
Paco’s Fish Tacos in Lettuce Wraps Recipe-March 2024
Mar 31, 2026 8:12 AM

  Better than burritos and tacos, these wraps have crunch and the lettuce lets the flavors of the fillings shine through.

  

Ingredients

4 servings

  Cooking spray

  2 pounds halibut or grouper fillets

  Salt and freshly ground black pepper

  Bibb or green leaf lettuce leaves, for wrapping

  1 jalapeño, seeded and chopped

  1 cup cilantro leaves (stems removed)

  3 sprigs fresh mint

  3 tablespoons grainy mustard

  2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

  1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) (eyeball it)

  1 lime

  Hot sauce, such as Tabasco

  1/2 red onion, finely chopped

  

Step 1

Heat a grill pan or nonstick skillet over high heat. Spray the pan with cooking spray. Place the fish on the grill pan, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5 minutes on each side, or until opaque. Transfer to a serving plate.

  

Step 2

Arrange the lettuce leaves on a platter. Place the jalapeño in a food processor with the cilantro, mint, mustard, and vinegar. Turn on the processor and stream in the EVOO, then season the sauce with salt and pepper.

  

Step 3

Break the fish into chunks and squeeze lime juice over the fish. Add a few dashes of hot sauce.

  

Step 4

Pile the fish in lettuce leaves and top each “taco” with the jalapeño cilantro sauce and chopped red onions.
