Crispy Fish Tacos

As you all should know by now, I have a Mexican food addiction! One of the things that I really like, but don't typically order at restaurants is fish tacos, I usually go for enchiladas or green chile burros. But there is one place that I almost always order a fish taco, and that is Rubio's! What really makes Rubio's fish tacos so tasty is the creamy white sauce that they put on the taco, it really pulls together all the flavors and makes them divine. I have never tried to make fish tacos at home before because I didn't know how to make the white sauce. Well, last night I decided to do some Googling and came across the "Top Secret" recipe for it...and you know what, it is embarrassingly easy! Basically, it is just equal parts of mayonnaise and plain yogurt, yup, that's it! So I threw some breaded fish portions in the toaster oven, whipped up the sauce, heated up some corn tortillas, and then tossed on some shredded cabbage and cheese....and voila...a delicious fish taco! I couldn't believe how similar my impostor tacos tasted, and they were so easy! If I wanted to make them even more authentic, I could fry the fish myself, but I just didn't want to mess with that. I did doctor my sauce up a bit with some garlic powder and Mexican seasoning, but I don't think that it was necessary. I can't wait to have some more of these later...but first I think I need to stop and get some limes!
