Mild white fish takes a spice rub well and cooks in the oven in about the time it takes to make the slaw. The tortillas warm on the same rack, wrapped in foil.

Ingredients

Slaw

Gear

  • aluminum foil
  • baking sheet
  • mixing bowl

Method

Tap a step to mark where you are. Tap a time to start a timer.

  1. Heat the oven

    Heat the oven to 425 F and line the baking sheet with foil.

  2. Season the fish

    Pat the fish dry, lay it on the pan, and rub with the oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and salt.

  3. Roast

    Roast until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Wrap the tortillas in foil and put them on the rack for the last 5 minutes.

  4. Slaw

    While it roasts, stir the coleslaw mix, sour cream, lime juice, and salt together in the bowl.

  5. Build

    Flake the fish into the warm tortillas and top with slaw, avocado, and salsa.

Notes

  • tipFrozen fillets are fine. Thaw them overnight in the fridge and pat them very dry so the spices stick.
  • tipDoubling the tortillas, two per taco, keeps them from splitting.
