Tilapia Tacos

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil plus 1 Tbsp
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice, more wedges for serving
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 pounds tilapia fillets (about 6)
  • Salt and pepper
  • 16 soft corn or flour tortillas
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • Fresh cilantro leaves
  • 2 Roma tomatoes, thinly sliced

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, soy sauce, chili powder, cumin, and garlic. Season fish on all sides with salt and pepper and place in a dish large enough to hold in a single layer. Pour marinade over fish, cover and refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes.

2. Heat olive oil in large pan over high heat. Remove fish from marinade and cook in pan until flaky, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes, then cut into chunks.

3. To serve, place fish on tortilla and top with cilantro, red onion, tomato slices and more lime juice.
