  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Slaw:

  • 2 cups shredded cabbage (green or red)
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
  • Salt to taste

For Serving:

  • 8 small corn or flour tortillas
  • Lime wedges (for garnish)
  • Chopped fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Fish:
    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
    • In a small bowl, mix the chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
    • Rub the spice mixture over the white fish fillets.
    • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the fish for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
    • Transfer the fish to a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Make the Slaw:
    • In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, and chopped cilantro.
    • In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper. Pour over the cabbage mixture and toss to coat.
  • Prepare the Sauce:
    • In a small bowl, mix together the sour cream, lime juice, hot sauce (if using), and salt. Stir until smooth.
  • Warm the Tortillas:
    • Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side, or wrap them in foil and warm them in the oven for 10 minutes.
  • Assemble the Tacos:
    • Flake the cooked fish into bite-sized pieces.
    • Place a few pieces of fish in each tortilla.
    • Top with a generous amount of slaw and a drizzle of the sour cream sauce.
    • Garnish with additional cilantro and lime wedges if desired.
  • Serve:
    • Serve the tacos immediately, with extra lime wedges and hot sauce on the side if desired. Enjoy!
