Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams White fish fillets (e.g., cod, tilapia, or halibut)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 pieces Corn tortillas
- 2 cups Shredded red cabbage
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 piece Avocado, sliced
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Zest of lime
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel and place them in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let the fish marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature.
While the fish marinates, prepare the lime crema by mixing sour cream, mayonnaise, lime zest, lime juice, and hot sauce (if using) in a small bowl. Set aside.
Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Grill the marinated fish for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it flakes easily with a fork and is opaque in the center. Remove from heat and use a fork to break the fish into large, bite-sized chunks.
Warm the corn tortillas either on the grill or in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side.
Assemble the tacos by placing grilled fish chunks into the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded red cabbage, sliced avocado, cilantro, and a dollop of lime crema.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra squeeze of freshness.
