Fish Tacos with Chili Lime Cream



Fish tacos are one of my favs to order at a good Mexican restaurant. I did not have fresh fish on hand but I had frozen cod fillets in the freezer that I wanted to use. This was such a quick and easy recipe, not to mention a light and healthy dinner! It was ALMOST as good as any Mexican restaurant!

Ingredients

1 lb. fresh cod or any fresh white fish

1/2 tsp. chili powder

1 lime, halved

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

8 6-inch corn tortillas

2 cups shredded cabbage mix

1 avocado, sliced

Dash of salt

Hot sauce (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat broiler. Sprinkle fish with 1/4 tsp of the chili powder and dash of salt.

2. For chili-lime cream, in bowl squeeze 2 tsp. juice from half the lime. Stir in sour cream, garlic powder, and remaining chili powder. Set aside.

3. Place fish on unheated greased broiler rack. Broil fish 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness, until fish flakes with fork. Break into chunks.

4. Assemble tacos with chunks of fish, cabbage, chili-lime cream, avocado, pepper sauce, and squeeze of lime.
