Healthy Fish Tacos With Fresh Mango Cabbage Slaw

I mean, who doesn’t LOVE a fresh fish taco!?!!? Fish tacos are the best dinner ever, especially because they are so simple to make. These Baked Fish Tacos with Mango Slaw are exploding with fresh flavors and are a healthy way to enjoy taco night.

Oven baking the fish makes this taco recipe so easy. Just prep the slaw, bake the fish then assemble your tasty taco creation!

What Type Of Fish To Use For Fish Tacos

White fish works best for fish tacos. I use cod because it is a great firm white fish and is fairly affordable. You could use halibut, rock fish or even tilapia if you prefer.
