Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the fish fillets and coat well. Marinate for 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Fish

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the marinated fish on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and set aside.

Cabbage Slaw Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Slaw

    In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, shredded carrot, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Toss well to combine and set aside to let the flavors meld while you prepare the rest.

Zesty Sauce Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt (or sour cream), mayonnaise, lime juice, and hot sauce (if using). Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.

Taco Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a skillet. To assemble, place a portion of grilled fish on each tortilla, top with cabbage slaw, and drizzle with zesty sauce. Serve immediately.
