Ingredients

  • 1 pound Mahi Mahi fillets
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 2

Place the Mahi Mahi fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated Mahi Mahi fillets to the skillet.

Cook the fillets for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and flake easily with a fork.

Step 5

While the fish is cooking, gently warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan or in the microwave.

Step 6

To assemble the tacos, place pieces of cooked Mahi Mahi on each tortilla.

Step 7

Top with a generous amount of shredded red cabbage, sliced avocado, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.

Step 8

Drizzle with sour cream and add a squeeze of lime juice over the top if desired.

Step 9

Serve the tacos immediately with additional lime wedges on the side.
