Well, I can hardly believe it, but we are less than 3 short weeks away from the release of The Outdoor Table! Since we are so close, I plan to share a few more sneak peak recipes from the book over the next couple of weeks. Remember, the recipes in the book are exclusive, meaning you won’t find them online! So be sure to pre-order your copy today, so you can get all of the deliciousness this book has to offer.
Now, before I get to the recipe, I wanted to invite you all to my first book signing which is also serving as a release party for The Outdoor Table! This will a be fun, laid back event at Parnassus Books, right across from Green Hills mall.
We will have some delicious refreshments, recipes courtesy of the cookbook, of course, for you to enjoy as well. So help me out on this first one, we would love to have a big turn out for this event! Bring your friends, grab some food and your copy of The Outdoor Table, and make a night of it! Thank you all for your support!
And now back to the recipe! As you may have heard, this cookbook originally started out as a southern book, so many of the recipes do have a southern flair, which I’m actually thrilled about! It really brings some character to the book, and this process made me fall in love with southern food all over again. And no, it’s not all fried chicken and cornbread, although those are included of course! One of my favorite warmer weather dishes is fish tacos, it’s just a go to dinner for me. I really wanted to include a recipe in the book for them, but I wasn’t sure how I was going to make fish tacos southern. And then I thought…Catfish! I didn’t want to fry the fish, because I wanted this to be something quick and light. In fact, that’s how most of the recipes are in this book. Fresh, fast, and colorful!
So, go on and get you some good catfish, maybe even fresh caught if you know a guy, and whip up these southern style fish tacos in no time. You’re gonna love them!
***A note about buying fish: I try to buy my seafood from somewhere that I trust. One thing to remember, fish should never smell fishy, if it does, don’t buy it. Also it’s best to use fresh fish the same day it is bought!
Tennessee Fish Tacos with Creamy Jalapeño Slaw
I call these “Tennessee Tacos,” because you probably won’t find fresh catfish tacos anywhere by the beach. Our ponds and lakes in Tennessee are full of good catfish, usually perfect for frying, but also for grilled tacos.
Ingredients:
Jalapeño Slaw
3 cups thinly sliced green cabbage
3 cups thinly sliced purple cabbage
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon finely chopped jalapeño pepper
2 tablespoons sliced green onions
1/4 teaspoon salt
Fish Tacos
1/4 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 pounds catfish filets
Flour tortillas
Directions:
For the slaw, place the green and purple cabbage in a large bowl. Mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, jalapeño, green onions, and salt. Pour the dressing over the cabbage, and toss to coat the cabbage completely. Refrigerate the slaw until you are ready to serve.
For the fish tacos, mix together the chili powder, paprika, cumin, and salt. Sprinkle the spice mixture all over the catfish filets.
Heat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the fish for 3 minutes per side, or until it is flaky. Meanwhile, wrap the tortillas in aluminum foil, and place them on the grill to heat. Remove the fish and tortillas from the grill, and use two forks to flake the fish apart. Assemble the tacos and top them with the slaw.
Makes 4 to 6 servings.
Tip: Be sure your grill is very clean and oiled before grilling this delicate fish.

I love to make soups when Fall starts, they are easy to make and always comforting on a cool night. I especially love when any meal is comforting but still light. That is exactly what this recipe is! It has lean protein from the Shrimp, whole grains and more protein from the Quinoa, and a little spicey kick from the cajun seasoning. If you want to save a buck, you can certainly use chicken in this recipe instead of Shrimp, just use exactly the same directions as you would with Shrimp.
The best part of this recipe, It’s even better the next day!

Trout is a great fish for grilling and the flavor is mild, not fishy at all. The herb topping is really simple to make and adds a great flavor and texture on top of the fish.

1 Tbls Lemon Juice

1 Tbls Rosemary, minced
2 Tsp Garlic, minced
Sea Salt and Freshly Ground Pepper
