Instructions
Creating Fish Tacos is a straightforward process. Follow these steps for a delicious outcome:
1. Prepare the Fish: Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
2. Marinate: Squeeze half the lime juice over the seasoned fish and let it marinate for about 10 minutes.
3. Cook the Fish: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of oil, then cook the fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until cooked through and flaky.
4. Warm the Tortillas: In another skillet or on a grill, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
5. Assemble the Tacos: Once the fish is cooked, flake it into bite-sized pieces. On each tortilla, layer the flaked fish, followed by shredded cabbage, avocado slices, and pico de gallo.
6. Add Sauce: Drizzle your choice of creamy sauce on top or serve as a side for dipping.
7. Garnish: Finish with fresh cilantro and additional lime juice to taste.
8. Serve Immediately: Arrange the assembled tacos on a platter and serve hot with lime wedges on the side.
These simple steps will guide you to a refreshing meal that promises joyful tastes and inviting aromas.
