The Story & Tips

Your Choice Taco Night is a four-serving, 25-minute dinner built around fish, shrimp, or chicken with tortillas, slaw, salsa, sour cream, and lime. The recipe intentionally leaves the protein choice open while keeping the cooking and serving arrangement consistent for everyone at the table.

Cook the selected protein in a skillet with taco seasoning, then warm the tortillas. Set out the cooked protein, slaw, salsa, and sour cream before serving, keeping hot fillings separate from cool toppings. Each person can assemble the tacos with the components and lime wedges in the proportions they prefer.

Serve the tacos while warm with a simple seasonal side or fresh fruit. Refrigerate cooked protein and toppings separately for up to three days. Keeping the ingredients separate also makes leftovers easier to reassemble without softening the tortillas before they are warmed again.

Equipment

• Large skillet or sauté pan
• Chef's knife
• Cutting board
