Ingredients

• White fish fillets (e.g., cod or tilapia) - 300 grams
• Corn tortillas - 4 pieces
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Ginger - 1 teaspoon, grated
• Red chili flakes - 1 teaspoon
• Soy sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Lime juice - 1 tablespoon
• Cilantro - 30 grams, chopped
• Green onions - 2, sliced
• Cabbage - 100 grams, finely shredded
• Carrot - 1 medium, julienned
• Avocado - 1, sliced
• Salt - to taste

Steps

1. In a bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, red chili flakes, soy sauce, and lime juice to create a marinade.
2. Add the fish fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Allow to marinate for 15 minutes.
3. While the fish marinates, prepare the slaw by combining shredded cabbage, julienned carrot, chopped cilantro, and sliced green onions in a bowl. Set aside.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated fish fillets and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until cooked through and flaky.
5. Warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan or microwave until soft.
6. To assemble the tacos, place a few pieces of cooked fish onto each tortilla, top with the prepared slaw, and add slices of avocado.
7. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
