Fish

Cabbage Slaw

Chipotle Sauce

Tacos

Method

Prepare the Fish

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the fish fillets and coat them well. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Fish

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the fish from the marinade and grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and flaky. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before flaking into bite-sized pieces.

Make the Cabbage Slaw

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, shredded carrot, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Toss together until well mixed. Set aside to allow flavors to meld.

Prepare the Chipotle Sauce

  1. 4

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt (or sour cream), chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt. Adjust seasoning to taste. Set aside.

Assemble the Tacos

  1. 5

    Warm the Tortillas

    Heat the corn tortillas on a skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until warm and pliable.

  2. 6

    Fill the Tacos

    To each tortilla, add a portion of the grilled fish, followed by a generous amount of cabbage slaw. Drizzle with chipotle sauce.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Enjoy the tacos immediately while warm, garnished with additional lime wedges if desired.
