Another great idea, unfortunately written. I bought the ingredients for this recipe without reading the amounts called for (my bad), but was able to adjust them as I made it. An inexperienced cook following this recipe is going to end up with incredibly salty fish that will burn their face off. Even changing the tablespoons to teaspoons is going to be HOT, so I would suggest just seasoning the fish to your taste. The salsa is full of great textures, colors, and flavors, but is bland as written; salt and cumin helped make it a great contrast to the fish. In the end, we enjoyed these very much, but I can only recommend title - and can only assume that all the great ratings came from people that did not follow this recipe as written. Sorry!

This stuff is great. Absolutely the best fish tacos I've had. I've tried mixing it up with other species of fish but the tilapia seems to work the best - probably because it grills easy and breaks into nice strips. The only thing I would suggest changing is the corn preparation. After grilling it, perhaps it would be good to simmer the cut kernels in a pan with some habanero and honey to get that sweet and spicy taste. Nevertheless, AWESOME recipe.

Couldn't find jicama so I substituted for 1/2 a cup of fresh diced jalepeno peppers. Used regular flour tortilla b/c that's what I prefer. Pretty good!

Only made the corn salsa (minus the red pepper) and it was great!

This was amazing! I halfed the cheyenne and black peppers as well as the salt. I also added some rinsed black beans to the salsa as another reviewer recommended. Lastly, I was a ding-a-ling and used my wrought iron skillet to cook it on the stove top. Duh...I almost "died" from the peppery smoke. Next time I'll put the skillet on the grill to get the crispy outside of the fish. Be sure not to overcook the fish; 3 minutes per side was perfect! My 16 year old son who never eats fish...LOVED it! This will definetly be a staple in our house. ___________________ This time I doubled the fish as the salsa goes a long way. Be careful to just sprinkle the spices on the fish. I grilled the fish on the grill in a wrought iron skillet. AMAZING!

I don't have a grill but came out great sauteed. I marinated the tilapia first with fresh garlic and cilantro. The corn salsa is really delicious!! Awesome recipe!!

I love this recipe. It's as simple as it gets. It doesn't take much time and the results are amazing. I've made this for my boyfriend several times and at a dinner party and everyone loved it! Wonderful recipe.

This was my first attempt at making any kind of fish tacos. Along with a lot of other reviewers, I couldn't find jicama so I just left that out. The tacos were great although we didn't think the fish was spicy enough so we added jalapenos to our tacos. (I probably didn't use enough cayenne pepper?) I really liked these, my bf is used to more authentic tacos but he still gave them a thumbs up.

This is for the salsa only. I marinade my fish in something I had at home. The salsa is great. And I took the suggestion of another memeber who added black beans to the salsa. I also added one jalapeno.

Overall, I thought these were very good. I omitted the jicama because I couldn't find it and I still thought the corn salsa tasted great. I halved the cayenne pepper because of other reviews, and added a little bit of old bay. I thought it was a bit too spicy still, but my boyfriend thought it was perfect. Will be making these again!

One of the best fish tacos I have ever tasted! Easy to make for home or company. Don't use large tortillas the smaller flour tortillas are awesome with this recipe. Add a dollop of spicy sour cream to make a richer flavor and brings out the fish.

This was great and super easy. Flour tortillas are fine but corn tortillas complement the flavor in the fish a little better.

These were delicious, summery, and somewhat spicy. Just what I was looking for. Pretty healthy too- i cooked the fish on the stove with fat free spay- worked fine. Im looking forward to making these again- perfect!

I usually don't review a recipe that I tweak way beyond the original but this was such a great recipe I just had to. I grilled three ears of fresh corn till crisp tender. I sauteed the onion and red pepper in some olive oil till tender then added the corn. Used the juice and zest of one lime and added some red pepper flakes. Grilled the Tilapia for about 8 mins and added sour cream, tomatoes and some mexican mixed cheese. DELICIOUS! thank you!
