Instrucciones

Prepare the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). Clean and oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Consejo del chef: Using a grill basket can make grilling fish easier and prevent it from falling apart.

Season the Fish

Brush the fish fillets with olive oil and season them with chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper.

Consejo del chef: Let the fish sit with the seasoning for about 10 minutes to enhance the flavors.

Grill the Fish

Place the fish fillets on the grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Consejo del chef: Avoid overcooking to keep the fish tender and juicy.

Make the Zesty Slaw

In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, carrots, cilantro, lime juice, mayonnaise, honey, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.

Consejo del chef: Prepare the slaw in advance and let it chill in the refrigerator for deeper flavors.

Assemble the Tacos

Warm the corn tortillas on the grill or a skillet. Place a portion of grilled fish on each tortilla, top with the zesty slaw, and serve with lime wedges.

Consejo del chef: For a smoky flavor, grill the tortillas until they have light char marks.

Trucos y consejos
