Fish Marinade

Method

Fish Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

    In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, lime juice, ground cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.

  2. 2

    Add Fish

    Add the white fish fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking Fish

  1. 3

    Cook the Fish

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the fish from the marinade and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.

Taco Assembly

  1. 4

    Prepare Tortillas

    Warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  2. 5

    Assemble Tacos

    Break the cooked fish into chunks and place a portion on each tortilla. Top with shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, and fresh cilantro. Add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, if desired.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.
