Instructions
- Using your fingers or a fork, combine all of the spices in a small bowl.

- Preheat a large skillet (nonstick if you have one) to medium heat with a few tablespoons of oil.

Notes
I love cod in this recipe, but any white fish you like works well.
The cod is gluten free, and tacos are gluten free with GF corn tortillas.
These tacos are shown here with poppyseed slaw and peach salsa, but any taco fixings you like go perfectly with this fish!
