How to Make Easy Fish Tacos

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Ingredients

  • 1/2 Tbsp vegetable oil

  • 3/4 Tbsp fresh lime juice

  • 1/2 garlic clove, minced

  • 3/4 tsp chili powder

  • 1/4 tsp ground cumin

  • 1/4 tsp ground paprika

  • Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional, to taste)

  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

  • 1/2 lb tilapia*, cod, or mahi mahi

  • For Serving:

    4 corn tortillas, warmed

  • 1 cup shredded purple cabbage

  • 1/2 avocado, sliced

  • 1 1/2 Tbsp chopped cilantro leaves

  • 2 Tbsp Cotija cheese (optional)

Fish Taco Sauce:

  • 2 Tbsp sour cream

  • 1 1/2 Tbsp mayonnaise

  • 1/2 Tbsp fresh lime juice

  • Pinch of garlic powder

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Directions

Marinating the Fish:

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together vegetable oil, lime juice, minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne (if using), and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  • Place the fish in a dish or resealable bag and pour the marinade over it. Allow the fish to marinate for about 20 minutes.

Cooking the Fish:

  • Preheat a grill to medium-high heat or preheat the oven to 400ยฐF (200ยฐC).

  • For grilling: Brush grill grates with oil. Grill the fish until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side (time varies based on thickness).

  • For oven: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use non-stick spray. Place fish on the baking sheet and bake until cooked through, about 10-15 minutes (fish should easily flake with a fork).

Making the Sauce:

While the fish is cooking, whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, and a pinch of garlic powder in a small bowl. Season with salt to taste.

Assembling the Tacos:

Break the cooked fish into pieces and layer them over the warm tortillas.

Top with shredded purple cabbage, avocado slices, chopped cilantro, and Cotija cheese if using.

Drizzle the fish taco sauce over the toppings.

Enjoy your flavorful and satisfying Fish Tacos!

*Note: Adjust cooking times based on the thickness of the fish fillets to ensure they are fully cooked.

Optional: You can customize the toppings and adjust quantities based on your preferences.
