Ingredients

  • White fish fillets (such as tilapia or cod) - 200 grams
  • Fresh cilantro - 30 grams
  • Lime juice - 2 tablespoons
  • Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
  • Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Corn tortillas - 4 small
  • Red cabbage - 50 grams, shredded
  • Avocado - 1 medium, sliced
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Ground cumin - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Fresh radishes - 4, thinly sliced

Steps

  1. In a bowl, combine lime juice, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and ground cumin to create a marinade.
  2. Add the fish fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let marinate for 15 minutes.
  3. While the fish is marinating, prepare the toppings by shredding the red cabbage, slicing the avocado, and thinly slicing the radishes.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated fish fillets and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan or on a griddle for about 1-2 minutes on each side.
  6. To assemble the tacos, place a piece of cooked fish on each tortilla, and top with shredded cabbage, avocado slices, and radishes.
  7. Chop the fresh cilantro and sprinkle it generously over the tacos before serving.
