Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 filets White fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 8 pieces Small tortillas
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Shredded red cabbage
- 1 piece Sliced avocado
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the fish fillets. Place the fillets on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the fish in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the oven and set aside.
While the fish is baking, make the herb yogurt sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, cilantro, dill, lime juice, and minced garlic. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Lightly warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat or wrap them in foil and place them in the oven for a few minutes until soft and pliable.
Assemble the tacos by flaking the baked fish into bite-size pieces and placing them on the warmed tortillas.
Top the fish with shredded red cabbage, sliced avocado, and a dollop of herb yogurt sauce. Drizzle with hot sauce, if desired.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for extra zing. Enjoy your delicious fish tacos!
