Ingredients

  • 1 lb white fish fillets (e.g., cod, tilapia, or halibut)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lime (zested and juiced)
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 2 ripe mangoes (peeled, pitted, and diced)
  • 1 red bell pepper (diced)
  • 0.25 cup red onion (finely diced)
  • 0.25 cup cilantro leaves (chopped)
  • 1 jalapeño (seeded and minced)
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 0.25 tsp salt (for salsa)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) or prepare a grill on medium heat.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade for the fish.

Step 3

Brush the marinade generously onto both sides of the fish fillets.

Step 4

If baking, place the fish on a lined baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. If grilling, grill the fish for 3-4 minutes per side.

Step 5

While the fish is cooking, prepare the mango salsa. In a medium bowl, combine diced mangoes, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

Step 6

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat or wrap them in foil and place them in the oven for 5 minutes.

Step 7

Once the fish is cooked, use a fork to gently break it into bite-sized pieces.

Step 8

Assemble the tacos by placing pieces of fish onto warm tortillas, then topping with the mango salsa.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy!
