Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs white fish fillets (like cod, tilapia, or mahi-mahi)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 0.5 tsp cumin
  • 0.25 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8–10 corn or flour tortillas
  • For the Mango Salsa:
  • 2 ripe mangoes, diced
  • 0.5 red onion, finely diced
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the mango salsa: In a medium bowl, combine diced mangoes, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt and mix gently. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the fish: Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Brush this mixture evenly over the fish fillets.
  3. Cook the fish: You can grill, bake, or pan-sear the fish. For grilling, cook over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flaky. For baking, preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake for 10-12 minutes. For pan-searing, heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook for 3-4 minutes per side.
  4. Warm the tortillas: Warm tortillas on a dry skillet, grill, or in the microwave until pliable.
  5. Assemble the tacos: Flake the cooked fish into bite-sized pieces. Fill each warm tortilla with flaked fish and top generously with the prepared mango salsa.

Notes

  • For a spicier salsa, leave some seeds in the jalapeño.
  • You can substitute avocado for a creamy element.
  • Serve with your favorite taco toppings like shredded lettuce, sour cream, or a squeeze of extra lime.
