The sauce for these Fish Tacos is amazing. I made the sauce a day ahead and found my hubby happily scooping it onto tortilla chips, thinking it was a dip or appetizer. I stopped him just in time so that we had enough for the tacos! Two things I thought added to this recipe: fresh lime and cilantro. Those could have been in the restaurant's salsa, so I could see how these tacos must have been amazing at the restaurant. Thanks for posting!
