It's hard to beat beer-battered deep-fried fish tacos but this recipe is a lighter, healthier version that calls for grilling the fish instead. It's delicious and incredibly refreshing on a hot summers day.

Step 1: Marinade the Fish

You can't have fish tacos without the fish.

Ingredients

1lb Fish for grilling (This time I used swordfish and shrimp but you can really use your preference of fish)
2 tsp Salt
2 tsp Herbes de provence
1 tsp Garlic powder
1 tsp Paprika
1 tbsp Cooking oil

Directions

Trim any skin or bones from the fish and cut into 1 inch cubes.
For the shrimp make sure it's been shelled and cut the tail off if necessary
Toss with the oil and other ingredients and allow to sit for 1-2 hours
Before cooking put the fish cubes and shrimp on skewers to make it easier to handle on the grill.

Step 2: Watermelon Slaw With Chervil

Watermelon Slaw with Chervil

1 Small-medium watermelon
1/2 cup Finely chopped chervil
1 Tomato de-seeded and finely chopped
2 cups sliced cabbage
Juice of 1/2 lime.

Directions

Chop the watermelon into manageable chunks and grate into a colander over a bowl
Allow the juice of the watermelon to drain for about 30 mins (you can use the juice for cocktails or anything you like)
Once the watermelon has drained toss with the rest of the ingredients in a bowl.

Step 3: Adobo Sauce

Adobo Sauce

1 Small tin of chipotle peppers in adobo
1 Cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
1/4 Cup mayonnaise

Alternative Sauce (if you can't get the chipotle peppers)

1 Cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
1/4 Cup mayonnaise
1/4 Cup ketchup
1 tbsp Sriracha
2 Cloves of garlic crushed
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Chilli powder
1 tbsp Agave nectar

Directions

Adobo sauce:
Drain the adobo from the can into a small bowl
De-seed 3-5 chipotle peppers then finely chop and add to the bowl
(you can use more or less peppers depending on how spicy you want your sauce)
Add the yogurt and mayonnaise and mix
Alternative sauce:
Simply mix all the ingredients together in a bowl

Step 4: Fire Up the Grill

Light a grill and set to medium heat
Heat some flour tortillas about 20-30 secs a side
Place the fish skewers on the grill
Cook the swordfish for 3 mins per side
Cook the shrimp for 2-3 mins per side
You want to be careful and time the fish as it will cook pretty quickIy and could dry out easily
I would also recommend only turning the fish once as it is fairly delicate and can fall apart if you turn it too often
