Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon 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
- 1 cup red cabbage, thinly sliced
- 1 large avocado, sliced
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 piece lime, cut into wedges
- 1 piece jalapeño, thinly sliced
Instructions
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix together the lime juice, olive oil, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the fish is well coated and let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the fish is marinating, prepare the taco toppings by thinly slicing the red cabbage, slicing the avocado, and chopping the fresh cilantro.
Grill the fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 20 seconds on each side.
To assemble the tacos, place a portion of grilled fish on each tortilla. Top with sliced red cabbage, avocado, cilantro, and a few slices of jalapeño if desired.
Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
