Instructions
Creating your Cilantro Lime Fish Tacos is an enjoyable process! Just follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Fish: Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat dry. Cut them into smaller pieces if desired.
2. Season the Fish: In a bowl, combine olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well, and then coat the fish with this spice mixture.
3. Cook the Fish: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned fish and cook for about 3-5 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the fish while cooking.
4. Warm Tortillas: In another skillet, warm the tortillas over medium heat for about a minute on each side or until they’re hot and pliable.
5. Prepare Toppings: While the fish is cooking, chop the cilantro and shred the cabbage. Slice the avocado and have your salsa or pico de gallo ready for serving.
6. Assemble the Tacos: Place a portion of the cooked fish onto a warm tortilla. Top with shredded cabbage, avocado slices, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
7. Serve: Arrange the tacos on a serving platter and garnish with additional lime wedges and salsa on the side.
