Ingredients

Servings
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream if you prefer
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro
  • juice from 1 lime
  • 1 Jalapeno pepper seeded and chopped
  • 1 cup white onion thinly sliced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
  • 1 1/2 pounds 4-6 tilapia fillets
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • Sliced avocado optional
  • Lime slices optional

Instructions

  1. Combine yogurt, cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeño in a food processor or blender and process until smooth. In a small bowl, combine the yogurt - jalapeño sauce with the thinly sliced onion and set aside.
  2. Combine the paprika through the ground red pepper and sprinkle over fish, gently pat seasoning onto fish. Heat oil in a large skillet (I used cast-iron) over medium-high heat. Add fish to pan, cook three minutes on each side.
  3. Warm tortillas and assemble tacos with fish, jalapeño sauce, and avocado if desired. Drizzle top with juice of a lime slice
