Directions

  1. Mix cabbage, mayonnaise, cilantro, and lime juice together in a medium bowl until combined. Set coleslaw aside.

  2. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Make 2 stacks of tortillas and wrap tightly in aluminum foil.

  3. Rinse fish and pat dry. Cut into 3/4-inch pieces and lay in a single layer in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Place tortillas in the oven to heat during the last 5 minutes.

  5. Place a small amount of Monterey Jack cheese on the bottom of each tortilla. Top with tilapia pieces, coleslaw, and salsa.
