Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Ultimate Fish Tacos.
Step 1
In a bowl, rub the tilapia fillets with 2 tablespoons of lime juice. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Lightly spray both sides of each fillet with cooking spray.
Step 2
Preheat the grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking.
Step 3
In a blender, combine the yogurt, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, chopped cilantro, and chipotle peppers. Blend until the sauce is smooth and well combined. Set aside.
Step 4
Place the seasoned tilapia on the preheated grill. Cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Step 5
In a skillet over medium-low heat, warm each corn tortilla for about 1 minute on each side until pliable.
Step 6
To assemble the tacos, divide the grilled fish evenly among the warm tortillas. Top with the cilantro-lime sauce, shredded cabbage, Monterey Jack cheese, chopped tomato, sliced avocado, salsa, and chopped green onions. Serve immediately.
