Quick Smoky Fish Tacos with Chipotle Mayo

Ingredients

15 INGREDIENTS

4 SERVINGS

1 tsp garlic powder

12 whole corn tortillas

2 cups red cabbage

thinly sliced

1/3 cup mayonnaise

1 whole chipotle peppers in adobo

such as cod or tilapia

lime wedges

1/4 cup fresh cilantro

chopped

1/4 tsp black pepper

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Directions

12 STEPS

In a food processor, add mayonnaise, chipotle pepper, and adobo sauce. Pulse until well blended.

In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.

Lay the fish fillets on a clean surface and evenly sprinkle the spice mix over each filet, rubbing it on all sides.

In a non-stick skillet set over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Add 2 of the fish fillets and cook, undisturbed, for about 2 minutes.

Flip the fillets and cook for another 2 minutes.

Transfer fillets to a plate and repeat the process with remaining olive oil and fish fillets.

Meanwhile, heat the corn tortillas on a dry skillet over medium heat for about 15 seconds per side.

Using a fork, shred the fish fillets.

Divide the cooked shredded fish evenly among the 12 heated corn tortillas.

Top each taco with shredded red cabbage, chopped cilantro, and drizzle with chipotle mayo.

Serve with lime wedges on the side and enjoy!
