Ingredients

  • 1 lb white fish fillets (e.g., tilapia, cod)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup carrots, grated
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or plain yogurt (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.

  3. 3

    Add the fish fillets to the marinade and let them sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.

  4. 4

    While the fish marinates, prepare the slaw by combining sliced cabbage, grated carrots, chopped cilantro, and lime juice in a separate bowl. Toss to combine and set aside.

  5. 5

    Grill the marinated fish fillets for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and slightly charred.

  6. 6

    Warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side.

  7. 7

    To assemble, place a portion of grilled fish onto each tortilla, top with simple slaw, and add sour cream or yogurt if desired.
