Tacos de Pescado al Cilantro are a refreshing and healthy Mexican snack featuring tender fish marinated with cilantro and lime, served in warm corn tortillas. This dish is light yet flavorful, perfect for a quick meal or appetizer.

Ingredients

• White fish fillets (e.g., tilapia or cod) - 200 grams
• Fresh cilantro - 30 grams (1 cup, chopped)
• Lime juice - 30 ml (2 tablespoons)
• Garlic - 1 clove, minced
• Olive oil - 15 ml (1 tablespoon)
• Corn tortillas - 4 small (6-inch)
• Cabbage - 100 grams, shredded
• Cherry tomatoes - 100 grams, halved
• Avocado - 1 small, sliced
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine the fish fillets, lime juice, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Marinate for 15 minutes.
2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated fish and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
3. While the fish is cooking, warm the corn tortillas in another skillet or microwave until pliable.
4. Once the fish is done, remove it from the skillet and break it into bite-sized pieces.
5. Assemble the tacos by placing the fish pieces on each tortilla. Top with shredded cabbage, halved cherry tomatoes, and avocado slices.
6. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges and cilantro if desired.
