Easily worth TEN stars, these are the BEST fish tacos I've ever eaten! I followed the recipe and pan toasted my corn tortillas. The potatoes makes it more satisfying and stretches out the salmon. The lime juice added my favorite flavor component. Thanks so much for posting, Sureglad. I'll be making these again-<br/>Roxygirl
