Ingredients

• 500 grams White fish fillets (e.g., cod, tilapia, or halibut)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 8 pieces Corn tortillas
• 2 cups Shredded red cabbage
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 piece Avocado, sliced
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Zest of lime
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 2

Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel and place them in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let the fish marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature.

Step 3

While the fish marinates, prepare the lime crema by mixing sour cream, mayonnaise, lime zest, lime juice, and hot sauce (if using) in a small bowl. Set aside.

Step 4

Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Grill the marinated fish for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it flakes easily with a fork and is opaque in the center. Remove from heat and use a fork to break the fish into large, bite-sized chunks.

Step 6

Warm the corn tortillas either on the grill or in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side.

Step 7

Assemble the tacos by placing grilled fish chunks into the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded red cabbage, sliced avocado, cilantro, and a dollop of lime crema.

Step 8

Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra squeeze of freshness.
