Ingredients

• 4 filets White fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 8 pieces Small tortillas
• 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 1 clove Garlic, minced
• 1 cup Shredded red cabbage
• 1 piece Sliced avocado
• 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Brush the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the fish fillets. Place the fillets on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 4

Bake the fish in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the oven and set aside.

Step 5

While the fish is baking, make the herb yogurt sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, cilantro, dill, lime juice, and minced garlic. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 6

Lightly warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat or wrap them in foil and place them in the oven for a few minutes until soft and pliable.

Step 7

Assemble the tacos by flaking the baked fish into bite-size pieces and placing them on the warmed tortillas.

Step 8

Top the fish with shredded red cabbage, sliced avocado, and a dollop of herb yogurt sauce. Drizzle with hot sauce, if desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for extra zing. Enjoy your delicious fish tacos!
