Instructions
Cook Fish And Warm Tortillas
- Preheat broiler, and position oven rack to about 6 inches below heating element.
- Place fish on a a baking sheet and spray or rub tilapia filets with olive oil and lightly coat with blackening spice.
- Place under broiler and broil for 4 minutes on each side, until cooked through (fish should flake easily with a fork).
- Remove fish from broiler when done, turn off oven. Wrap tortillas in foil and place in oven to gently warm in the heat of the oven before serving.
Prepare Slaw And Sides
- While fish is broiling, make the slaw. De-seed and dice poblano pepper, and dice ½ of the onion. Toss with cabbage, cilantro, lemon juice, and salt and set aside.
- Combine sour cream sauce, lime juice and spice blend in a separate bowl and mix well. Set aside along with remaining ½ sliced onion and the avocado.
- Assemble tacos by layering tortillas, with cabbage slaw, broiled fish, avocado, onion and spicy crema.
Notes
- Note: I’ve used generic blackened seasoning in the recipe, but included a simple homemade blackened seasoning blend in the page above the recipe card in case you’d rather do that.
