Ingredients

  • 2 fillets white fish (like cod or tilapia)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 small corn tortillas
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Coat the fish fillets with this mixture.

  2. 2

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side until cooked through and flaky.

  3. 3

    While the fish is cooking, prepare the herb sauce by mixing yogurt, cilantro, mint, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

  4. 4

    Warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until pliable.

  5. 5

    Once the fish is cooked, break it into bite-sized pieces and place it on the warmed tortillas.

  6. 6

    Drizzle the herb sauce over the fish, and garnish with extra herbs if desired.

  7. 7

    Serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra zesty touch.
