Tilapia Tacos with Peach Relish


I guess you can say we've been on a fish taco kick these past few weeks.  I think this is the third time we've made them and the third recipe I've tried.  I will say that this recipe is my favorite so far.  Probably because the fish was fried on the skillet in a little oil instead of baked in the oven like the recipe suggested.  Hubs dipped them in egg and coated them in bread crumbs.  They tasted like fish sticks.  YUM!  That paired with the fresh salsa and a little bit of sour cream made for an amazing dinner.  Enjoy!
