I kind of threw it together, but here it is to the best of my recollection.

The fish was Trader Joe's garlic and chile tilapia. I broiled it.

Pico:

1/2 small yellow onion
1/4 med red onion
Diced fresh tomatoes -- about a 1.5:1 ratio to the onions
1.2 of a jalapeno
2-3 T of cliantro
light squeeze of 1/2 half of lime
salt

Avocado with lemon and salt

Assemble on a tortilla, top with a little more cilantro and more lime juice.

We have serranos here as well as: habernos, poplanos, ancho, anaheim, chiles de arbol, pasilla, guajillo, jalapeno and some I don't even know the names of. Some are available dried also. We have Mexican stores too. I thought serranos were available anywhere. We had them in New England.

Dry guajillos are the best. I love Chile Colorado so I'm a big fan of them. I've been noticing that Guy Fieri has been praising them as well.

I've heard of those. Think it was in my Mexican cook book. Don't know if I ever noticed them in the supermarket because I never needed them. I'll have to look.

They also make a great sauce for Camarones ala Diabla. You should use YouTube lol. That's how I learn most of my stuff. Most of the people on there use recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation.

I do use it. I use more than one source. I had the Mexican book from before the internet or the early days when I didn't use it. It's actually pretty good. I got after going to a Mexican lunch put on by my daughter's teachers when she was young who was married to a Mexican. The sour cream tasted different even.
