Description
Easy Fish Tacos bring bright, fresh flavors and a satisfying crunch, featuring flaky white fish, crisp cabbage, and a tangy sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 lb white fish fillets (e.g., cod, tilapia, haddock)
- 1 cup shredded cabbage (green or purple)
- 6–8 corn or flour tortillas
- Fish taco sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lime wedges for serving
Instructions
- Prepare and season the fish: Pat fillets dry with paper towels, sprinkle with seasoning mix evenly, and rub gently.
- Heat the skillet and cook the fish: Warm a skillet over medium heat, add oil, and place fillets in the pan without crowding. Cook for 3–4 minutes per side until golden at the edges.
- Warm the tortillas: Use a dry pan over medium heat or microwave wrapped in a damp towel for 20–30 seconds.
- Assemble the tacos: Break the fish into bite-sized pieces, place fish on each tortilla, top with cabbage, and drizzle with sauce.
- Serve with lime wedges on the side.
Notes
For an appetizer twist, try mini tacos. Serve tacos with cilantro-lime rice and black beans or arrange on a platter with toppings for a build-your-own option.
