Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Tilapia fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 pieces Corn tortillas
- 2 cups Shredded green cabbage
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (plain, nonfat)
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 1 whole Avocado, sliced
- optional Hot sauce
Instructions
Preheat a grill or nonstick skillet over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the tilapia fillets with olive oil on both sides, then sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the fish.
Cook the fish on the grill or skillet for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, Greek yogurt, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Toss to coat and set aside.
Warm the corn tortillas by heating them on a dry skillet for about 30 seconds per side, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20-30 seconds.
Assemble the tacos by flaking the cooked tilapia into bite-sized pieces and placing equal portions onto each tortilla.
Top the fish with the cabbage slaw, a spoonful of salsa, slices of avocado, and a drizzle of hot sauce (if desired).
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, delicious fish tacos!
