Bake Fish for Tacos in Salsa for Greater Flavor

Fish tacos are favorites any time of year, but they can be a bit complicated to make, especially on the grill. These fish tacos are baked with Garden Fresh Gourmet® Thick ‘N Chunky Salsa and sprinkled with toasted cumin seeds to add big flavor in very little time. The salsa’s big chunky bits of tomato, jalapeño and onion make the meaty white fish extra good on grilled tortillas. Finish tacos off with chopped celery and celery leaves for a fresh crunch.
