Ingredients
- Fish
1 pound white fish (mahi mahi, flounder, tilapia, grouper, etc)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon minced jalapeno
1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro
- Slaw
2 cups shredded cabbage
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Salt and pepper
- Toppings
1/2 red onion, diced
2 roma tomatoes, diced
1/4 cup freshly chopped cilantro
1/2 cup guacamole (optional)
2 limes, quartered
8 corn or flour tortillas, warmed
Directions
- To start we’re going to make a little quick marinade. In a small bowl combine 1/4 cup olive oil with the juice of 1 lime, so 2 tablespoons, 1 tablespoon of chili powder, and then a little bit of salt and black pepper.
- And then whisk it together.
- Just place your fish in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over, and then I also sprinkle on some jalapeño, and a little bit of freshly chopped cilantro.
- Then pop this in the fridge and let it marinate for 15-20 minutes.
- Place the fish directly into a hot skillet over medium-high heat.
- Now fish cooks really fast, so I like to cook it for 3-4 minutes on the first side, and then give it a flip and finish it cooking on the other side, which will take another 2 -3 minutes depending on the size and thickness of your fish.
- Start compiling your tacos with some fish in either flour or corn tortillas.
- And I like to load mine up with the fish so you make sure you know the fish is in there.
Next we’re going to add on a little bit of slaw.
I’ve just put some red wine vinegar and salt and pepper on some plain shredded cabbage.
I love the little bite of acidity that it gives these tacos.
Then we’ll finish it off by adding on some red onion, a little bit of tomato, and then I like to finish it off with a little bit of freshly chopped cilantro. - Squeeze on a little fresh lime juice just before serving and you are ready to eat!
