Ingredients

• White fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia) - 300 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Cayenne pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Cumin - 1/2 teaspoon
• Garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Corn tortillas - 4 pieces
• Cabbage (shredded) - 1 cup
• Fresh cilantro (chopped) - 1/4 cup
• Lime (juiced) - 1 medium
• Avocado (sliced) - 1 medium
• Sour cream - 4 tablespoons
• Hot sauce - to taste

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, cayenne pepper, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
2. Add the fish fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let them marinate for about 15 minutes.
3. While the fish is marinating, prepare the salsa by mixing shredded cabbage, chopped cilantro, and lime juice in a separate bowl. Season with salt to taste.
4. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the marinated fish fillets. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
5. Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side.
6. To assemble the tacos, place a portion of cooked fish on each tortilla, top with the cabbage salsa, sliced avocado, a dollop of sour cream, and a drizzle of hot sauce.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious spicy fish tacos!
