INSTRUCTIONS
From "Mexican Light Cooking, " by Kathi Long (Perigee Books by Putnam). Halve or quarter the fish filets so they will fit into a medium-sized saucepan. Combine the chicken broth, jalapeno juice and lime juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Add the fish pieces and simmer 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the fish cool in the liquid for 30 minutes. Remove the fish and pat dry with paper towels. Place the fish in a medium-size bowl and break into flakes with your fingers or a fork. Add the scallions and tomato and toss to mix. Season with the salt and pepper. Arrange 2 tablespoons of the fish filling down the center of each taco shell. Divide the lettuce among the shells and top each taco with 1 tablespoon tomatillo salsa.

A Message from our Provider:
“If thankfulness does not move us to serve God, then we do not truly understand who our God is and what He has done in our behalf. Without gratitude for Christ’s sacrificial love, our duty will become nothing more than drudgery and our God nothing more than a dissatisfied boss. #Bryan Chapell”
