How To Make The Summer Beach Tacos From Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach

If there's one thing that makes the Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach so great, it's the location. There's no denying that being so close to one of the best beaches in the U.S. enhances any vacation experience. But anyone who has stayed at this resort and enjoyed the classic Florida getaway knows that there's way more to this place than just the beach, and if there's one element that really keeps people coming back year after year, it's the food.

Whether enjoying fresh seafood and Asian-fusion cuisine with the stunning views at Ocean Hai or just grabbing cocktails and snacks from Dock's Pool Bar & Grille, guests will surely choose a new favorite menu item each day, even if they're mixing in meals at the area's most popular restaurants. One meal recommendation that comes directly from the resort's culinary team is the Summer Beach Tacos, which can now be enjoyed in the comfort of your own home, even if you don't have one of the signature pool cocktails from Dock's to enjoy with it. (Not like you don't have plenty of other options.)

Gifted to us by Chef Sean Ragan, this recipe is especially great because of the liberties you can enjoy with the main ingredients. Not in the mood for chicken? Try it with shrimp. Not feeling the shrimp? Then it's mahi time. Feeling especially bold? Make all three and eat it by the pool while your neighbors grill hot dogs.
