Fish Taco Ingredients

Method

Fish Taco Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Slaw

    In a bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, shredded carrot, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside to let the flavors meld.

  2. 2

    Season the Fish

    Rub the tilapia fillets with cumin, salt, and pepper. Ensure the fillets are evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Cook the Fish

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned tilapia and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  4. 4

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate pan, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until they are pliable.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    On each tortilla, place a piece of the cooked tilapia, a generous amount of spicy cabbage slaw, a dollop of chipotle mayo, and top with pico de gallo.

  6. 6

    Serve

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