Fish Tacos

Dear Readers,

If you are looking for a lighter meal try fish tacos. Instead of eating heavy red meat all the time try switching a few of your dishes with fish. I marinated tilapia and then grilled the fish. I skipped the cheese and sour cream and used cabbage, herbs, citrus, and fresh tomatoes to add flavor and crunch.

Ingredients

Tacos:
1 pound tilapia fish
1 tbsp canola oil
1 lime, juiced
1 tbsp chili powder
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
8 flour tortillas
pinch salt and pepper

Garnish:
Shredded white cabbage
Chopped cilantro leaves
Lime wedges
Salsa

Directions
Place fish in a medium size dish. Whisk together the oil, lime juice, chili powder, and cilantro and pour over the fish. Let marinate for 15 to 20 minutes.

Remove the fish from the marinade place onto a hot grill, flesh side down. Grill the fish for 4 minutes on the first side and then flip for 30 seconds and remove. Let rest for 5 minutes then flake the fish with a fork.

Place the tortillas on the grill and grill for 20 seconds. Divide the fish among the tortillas and garnish with any or all of the garnishes.
