Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spicy Fish Tacos with Lime Sauce.
Step 1
Season the tilapia fillets with taco seasoning mix, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Step 2
In a 12-inch skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the seasoned fish and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and cut the fish into bite-sized pieces.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Place the taco shells in the preheated oven and heat for about 5 minutes, or until they are crisp.
Step 4
In a large bowl, combine the plain yogurt, lime juice, sugar, lime zest, and salt. Mix well, then add the coleslaw mix, chopped cilantro, and finely chopped jalapeno. Stir to combine and let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 5
To assemble the tacos, spoon about 1/4 cup of the cooked fish into each taco shell, followed by 1/4 cup of the coleslaw mixture. Top each taco with 1 tablespoon of diced tomato.
