Taco Filling

Method

Prepare the Fish

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

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

  2. 2

    Coat the Fish

    Add the white fish fillets to the marinade and coat them evenly. Let it sit for about 15-20 minutes to soak in the flavors.

  3. 3

    Cook the Fish

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated fish fillets and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Assemble the Tacos

  1. 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 pliable.

  2. 5

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the tortillas are warming, prepare the toppings by shredding the cabbage, dicing the tomato, and slicing the avocado.

  3. 6

    Build the Tacos

    On each tortilla, place a portion of the cooked fish, followed by shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes, avocado slices, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

  4. 7

    Add Sauce

    Top with a dollop of sour cream and drizzle with hot sauce according to your taste.

  5. 8

    Serve

    Serve the fish tacos immediately, garnished with additional lime wedges if desired.
