Easy Fish Tacos with Slaw (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Fish

01 - 1 pound white fish (cod or tilapia works best)
02 - 2 teaspoons olive oil

→ Seasoning

03 - 1 teaspoon chili powder
04 - 1 teaspoon salt
05 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
06 - 1 teaspoon ground cumin
07 - Juice of 1 fresh lime

→ Slaw

08 - 3 cups fresh shredded cabbage (or bagged coleslaw mix)
09 - 1/3 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro
10 - 1/4 cup mayonnaise
11 - Juice of 1 lime
12 - 1 teaspoon honey
13 - Salt and cracked black pepper to taste

→ For Serving

14 - 8 six-inch corn or flour tortillas
15 - 1 ripe avocado, sliced (optional)
16 - Fish taco sauce for drizzling
17 - Extra lime wedges for serving

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the fish on the parchment and rub it with olive oil on both sides until evenly coated.
02 - Mix together the chili powder, salt, garlic powder, and cumin in a small bowl. Sprinkle this flavorful seasoning mix all over both sides of the fish. Finish by squeezing fresh lime juice over the top for that perfect citrus kick.
03 - Slide the baking sheet into your preheated oven and bake for 10-14 minutes until the fish flakes easily with a fork. For a slightly crispy finish, you can broil it for the final 2 minutes.
04 - While the fish is cooking, whip up your slaw. In a bowl, stir together the mayo, lime juice, honey, salt and pepper until smooth. Toss this dressing with the shredded cabbage and fresh cilantro until everything is well coated. Set aside to let the flavors mingle.
05 - Once the fish is done, use a fork to gently pull it apart into bite-sized chunks - perfect for stuffing into tacos!
06 - Warm your tortillas slightly, then load them up with the flaked fish, top with the crisp slaw, add sliced avocado if desired, and finish with a generous drizzle of fish taco sauce. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side for squeezing.

# Notes:

01 - These fish tacos combine tender, perfectly seasoned white fish with cool, crispy slaw for an irresistible flavor combination.
02 - For the best results, use cod or tilapia as they have a mild flavor that takes on seasonings beautifully.
03 - Make sure to serve with plenty of fresh lime wedges for that extra zing of citrus.
