- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin

- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 small tortillas Corn tortillas
- 2 cups Shredded red cabbage
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice

- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 1 small Jalapeño (finely chopped, optional)
- 1 medium Avocado (sliced)
Instructions
1. Preheat your grill, grill pan, or stovetop skillet to medium-high heat.
2. Pat the halibut filets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
3. Brush the halibut filets with olive oil, then evenly sprinkle the spice mixture on both sides of the fish.
4. Cook the halibut on the grill or skillet for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and let it rest.
5. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded red cabbage, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Toss well and set aside.
6. In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, lime zest, and jalapeño (if using) to create the creamy lime sauce.
7. Warm the corn tortillas by heating them on a dry skillet for 20-30 seconds on each side, or until pliable.
8. Assemble the tacos: place a piece of halibut on each tortilla, top with the cabbage slaw, a drizzle of the creamy lime sauce, avocado slices, and additional cilantro if desired.
9. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra squeeze of fresh citrus.
