Taco Filling

Method

Prepare the Fish

1

Marinate the Fish

In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

2

Coat the Fish

Add the white fish fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 to 30 minutes.

3

Cook the Fish

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the marinated fish in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Assemble the Tacos

4

Warm the Tortillas

In a separate skillet or on a grill, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until they are soft and pliable.

5

Build the Tacos

To each tortilla, add a portion of the cooked fish, followed by a handful of shredded cabbage, a few slices of avocado, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.

6

Add Toppings

Top each taco with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt and salsa if desired.

7

Serve Immediately

Serve the fish tacos warm with lime wedges on the side for extra flavor.
