Wow. That's all I can say about these. WOW. I begged this recipe from my uncle Sandy while we were at the reunion (did I mention we did a LOT of cooking??) These are seriously, and I mean REALLY the best fish tacos I've ever had. The coriander is essential, and makes the entire dish. I used Mahi-Mahi and large shrimp.

For 2 people, you'll need:

1.5 lbs fish filets like tilapia, red snapper, mahi-mahi or other white fish and/or large shrimp
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp crushed coriander seeds
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
corn tortillas
lime-cilantro crema (recipe at the bottom)

Preheat oven to 425. Prepare a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray lightly with non-stick spray.

First, either crush the coriander with a mortar and pestle or run it through a spice grinder. This smells so, so good. It's lemony. It's amazing how different the coriander seeds are to the cilantro leaves it produces!
Combine all spices in a small bow and mix well.
