Directions Blackened Tilapia Fish Tacos
Directions
-
Place cabbage and red onion in large bowl with cilantro. Mix sour cream, 1/2 the lime juice, honey, chipotle pepper, cayenne pepper, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper together in a separate bowl. Pour dressing over the cabbage mixture. Let marinate, 30 minutes to overnight.
Combine avocados, jalapeno pepper, minced onion, and sriracha sauce in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, mash to make the guacamole.
Combine the remaining lime juice, brown sugar, paprika, oregano, garlic powder, salt, cumin, and ground red chile in another bowl. Sprinkle evenly over tilapia fillets.
Heat oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add tilapia, cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 3 minutes per side. Serve fish topped with slaw and guacamole.
