Instructions
Creating Fish Tacos with Cilantro Lime Slaw is simple if you follow these straightforward steps:
1. Prepare the Slaw: In a bowl, combine shredded cabbage, carrots, cilantro, lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside to let the flavors meld.
2. Season the Fish: In a small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the fish fillets.
3. Cook the Fish: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the seasoned fish fillets. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
4. Warm the Tortillas: While the fish cooks, warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.
5. Assemble the Tacos: Place a piece of cooked fish on each tortilla. Top with a generous amount of cilantro lime slaw and diced avocado, if using.
6. Add Creaminess (Optional): Drizzle with sour cream or Greek yogurt for added creaminess.
7. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your delicious fish tacos while they are warm!
