Fish Tacos With Avocado, Feta And Cabbage

serves 2-4
Recipe from cookthink


A good fish taco can cure most ills. The hot fish goes so well with the crisp cabbage, the briny feta and the creamy, rich avocado. Fresh cilantro on top adds a shot of brightness as does extra lime.

ingredients

12 small flour tortillas
2 Hass avocados, cubed
1 lime, juiced
1 pound tilapia or barramundi (or some other light fish)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 head napa cabbage, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups crumbled feta
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
salt and pepper

timer

prep: 20 minutes
total: 30 minutes

tools

large sauté pan
spatula
4 or 5 medium bowls

instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 200F. Wrap the tortillas in a damp kitchen towel and put them in the oven to warm. Prep the avocado and toss them with the lime juice in a medium bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Prep the rest of the ingredients and put each one in its own medium bowl.

2. Season the fish on both sides with the cumin, cayenne pepper and a sprinkling of salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. When it’s hot and shimmering, add the fish. Shake the pan gently, then leave it alone until the fish develops a light brown crust, 4-6 minutes. Turn the fish with a spatula and do the same on the other side. Remove the fish to a plate when it's just barely cooked all the way through. Cut the fish into long pieces and arrange them on a plate.

3. Take the tortillas out of the oven. Set out the bowls of ingredients and let each person make her own tacos.
