Tortillas

Cabbage Slaw

Lime Crema

Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

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

  2. 2

    Grill the Fish

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated fish for about 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 everything together until well mixed. Set aside to let the flavors meld.

Lime Crema Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Lime Crema

    In a small bowl, mix together sour cream, lime juice, minced garlic, and salt. Adjust salt to taste. This crema will add a tangy flavor to the tacos.

Assembling Tacos

  1. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Heat the soft corn tortillas on a skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until warm. Place grilled fish on each tortilla, top with cabbage slaw, and drizzle with lime crema. Serve immediately.
