Fish Tacos

I was craving fish tacos, so using what I found in the cupboards we had a tasty lunch. This recipe is highly susceptible to adjustments (a different kind of fish, lime instead of lemon, fresh cilantro) I just used what I had like usual.
Fish Tacos
  • 4 Tilapia Filets (I really like the frozen filets, that come in the bulk pack, good for 2-3 different meals, and they were on sale last week)!
  • ½ Cup Bread Crumbs
  • 1 t Garlic Powder
  • 1 t Pepper
  • ½ t Salt
  • ¼ t chili powder
  • Tortillas (4 Flour, or 8 corn)
  • ¼ Head of cabbage
  • Salsa
Mix the Bread crumbs, garlic, pepper, salt and chili in a shallow dish. Slice tilapia filets in half. Coat filets with bread crumbs. In a medium-high pan on the stove, sprayed with non-stick spray (or a small amount of oil), cook fish. (My filets were thin so it only took about 3 minutes per side).

Sauce
  • ¼ C sour cream
  • 2 T lemon juice
  • 2 t cilantro (I only had dried, but fresh would probably work better)
Mix ingredients together.
Layer on a warm tortilla, white sauce, then fish filets (for the flour tortillas I used two of the sliced filets, for each taco), and top with cabbage and salsa (I just had store bought salsa, but it tasted pretty good). Serve with lemon wedge. Yum!
