Ingredients
Scale
1 pound white fish fillets (such as tilapia or cod)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 ripe mango, diced
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
1 jalapeño, minced (optional, adjust for spice)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
Juice of 1 lime
Salt, to taste
8 small corn tortillas
1 avocado, sliced (optional)
Lime wedges
Instructions
Start by patting the fish fillets dry with paper towels. In a bowl, combine olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well and coat the fish fillets evenly with the marinade. Allow them to rest for about 5 minutes.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated fish into the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the fish easily flakes with a fork.
While the fish is cooking, prepare the mango salsa by combining diced mango, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a mixing bowl. Toss gently and adjust seasoning as needed.
In the same skillet, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side, until soft and slightly charred.
Layer each tortilla with cooked fish, followed by a generous spoonful of mango salsa. Top with avocado slices and a squeeze of lime juice if desired.
