Ingredients

• White fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia) - 200 grams
• Corn tortillas - 4 small
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Lime juice - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Ripe avocado - 1 medium
• Fresh cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Tomato - 1 small, diced
• Red onion - 2 tablespoons, finely chopped
• Jalapeño - 1/2, finely chopped (optional)

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
2. Add the white fish fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for about 10 minutes.
3. While the fish is marinating, prepare the guacamole by mashing the ripe avocado in a bowl. Stir in the chopped cilantro, diced tomato, red onion, jalapeño (if using), and a pinch of salt.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the marinated fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and flaky.
5. Warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.
6. Assemble the tacos by placing a piece of cooked fish on each tortilla and topping with a generous spoonful of guacamole.
7. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
