Lazy Day Fish tacos

there's always a night when we're in the mood for something delicious but also do not feel like cooking for hours and hours....well that's when you pop open a nice bottle of wine and poke around in the pantry and freezer for some inspiration. This recipe is for that kinda night. Main ingredient...FROZEN FISH STICKS, we all should have those handy!
Other INGREDIENTS:
Corn tortillas
1/2 Mango, diced
1 bunch fresh spring garlic
fresh cilantro
1/2 stick of butter

2 cloves of fresh garlic
1 roma tomato
1TBS sriracha chili/garlic paste and 1 TBS of MAX'S chili sauce (Chipotle or medium hot )
1/2 lb cooked shrimp
7 kumquats(cut in halves)




ok so this is super easy:
while your oven is defrosting the fish sticks grab a sauce pan and add 1tbs of extra vergin olive oil.Turn the heat on MD, add the 2 cloves of minced garlic, let is simmer for about a minute.add the 7 kumquats,the juice of 1/2lime and 1/2lemon and 1/2 stick of butter.Turn the heat on low and cook for about 10 minutes untill the sauce thickens.
turn off heat and add the shrimp and cilantro, satl and pepper to taste.
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, spring garlic(thinly sliced), chili and garlic sauce, the remaining lime and lemon juice, cilantro, salt and pepper to taste.
heat up in the oven the corn tortillas, 2 per tacos, about 2 minutes per side.
