Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Mahi Mahi fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 piece Garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 cups Cabbage, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup Cilantro leaves, chopped
- 8 pieces Corn tortillas
- 1 piece Avocado, sliced
- 1 piece Jalapeño, seeded and diced
- 1 piece Juice of lime
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the Mahi Mahi fillets dry with paper towels and brush them with the olive oil mixture. Let them marinate for about 10 minutes.
While the fish is marinating, prepare the slaw by combining the cabbage, red onion, cilantro, and lime juice in a bowl. Toss to mix well and set aside.
Grill the Mahi Mahi for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until fully cooked and flakes easily with a fork.
Warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
Assemble the tacos by flaking the grilled Mahi Mahi into large chunks and placing them onto each tortilla.
Top with the prepared cabbage slaw, avocado slices, and a sprinkle of diced jalapeño for added heat.
Serve immediately while warm, optionally with additional lime wedges and hot sauce on the side.
